Founded in 1997, this film festival celebrates its 28th anniversary this year. It has established itself as a platform that annually recognizes outstanding films, directors, and actors while discovering and showcasing emerging filmmakers. Notably, based in Hollywood, the world's largest film market, it is regarded as a practical exchange venue offering opportunities for global distribution, co-production, and investment.
This year, numerous works from major Asian countries, including Korea, Japan, and China, have been invited, making it a stage to highlight the diversity and competitiveness of Asian cinema.
