AIFFA 2019
April 25, 2019 - April 27, 2019
This gathering of filmmakers and movie stars from the Asean region will add to the charms of the rustic city of Kuching. Sanctioned by ASEAN Secretariat as one of the ASEAN joint activities, the festival is held every two years.
The ASEAN International Film Festival And Awards (AIFFA) is a premier film festival, which made its debut in 2013. Held in Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia, the biennial film festival celebrates the best of films around the ASEAN region.
The three day event culminates in the glamorous Gala Nite finale where international filmmakers gather to witness the best of the best film productions in the region. The films are judged by an ASEAN Jury and twelve categories of awards are presented. The spectacular show ends with the Spirit of ASEAN Award…a film that portrays the best of ASEAN people, culture and lifestyle. Another interesting award is the Lifetime Achievement Award, presented to an ASEAN film personality who has broken the international barrier.
