The Center for Asian America Media presents the San Francisco International Asian American Film Festival (SFIAAFF) every March. The SFIAAFF is the nation’s largest showcase for new Asian American and Asian films, annually presenting approximately 130 works in San Francisco, Berkeley and San Jose. Since 1982, the SFIAAFF has been an important launching point for Asian American independent filmmakers as well as a vital source for new Asian cinema.

Greetings!

“Hollywood Chinese” starts today, April 11, in San Francisco and Oakland for a limited one-week theatrical engagement. Please tell your friends in the Bay Area — this is our chance to prove to theater managers nationwide that a documentary like this can work in their movie houses too.

Thanks for your support,
Arthur
