The New York Asian Film Festival is back like a bad dream, ready to cleanse the dirt from your soul with a barrage of sparkling, super-powered movies straight out of Asia. It’s a seventeen day orgy of new films from Miike Takashi, Johnnie To, Hur Jin-Ho, Wakamatsu Koji and Aoyama Shinji. Plus, our first-ever documentary ("Yasukini") and our first movies from Indonesia ("Kala") and Vietnam ("The Rebel").

Screenings were held from June 20 – July 6, 2008 at the IFC Center and Japan Society.
