Asia Society at the Movies

Asia Society is proud to announce the launch of Asia Society at the Movies, a series of film screenings and conversations showcasing a broad range of films and filmmakers from across Asia and the Asian diaspora.

Asia Society at the Movies launched in February 2021 with monthly screenings featuring Oscar contenders from Asia. This inaugural series is organized in partnership with Asia Society Southern California and the Asian World Film Festival (AWFF).

Additional screenings and associated programming will commence in mid-April and will be streamed online. In-person screenings in the Asia Society New York auditorium and at other participating Asia Society centers will begin when COVID safety protocols permit.

Asia Society at the Movies celebrates established and emerging voices, contemporary films and classics, and documentaries. The series builds on Asia Society’s long and rich history of film programming. This initiative also serves to deepen understanding of Asian cultures — a core part of Asia Society’s mission since its creation.
