The New York Asian Film Festival (NYAFF) is an annual film festival held in New York City dedicated to showcasing Asian film and culture, featuring contemporary premieres and classic titles primarily from Eastern and Southeast Asia, including countries like Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, the Philippines, and Thailand. Co-presented by the New York Asian Film Foundation and Film at Lincoln Center, the festival aims to champion the works of both established and emerging talents in Asian cinema. NYAFF typically runs in July across multiple venues in Manhattan, such as Film at Lincoln Center and SVA Theatre. The festival often includes special events, guest appearances by actors and directors, and awards like the Uncaged Award and Rising Star Asia Award.
