San Diego Asian Film Festival

[GeneChing]

Asian Film Festivals have been on the rise in America. One of the leading Asian Film Festivals has been The San Francisco International Asian Film Festival (http://www.asianamericanfilmfestival.org/), which has been going now for a quarter century. We've discussed Taipei's Golden Horse Film Festival (http://ezine.kungfumagazine.com/forum/showthread.php?t=46108) and UK's Dragon Den Film Festival (http://ezine.kungfumagazine.com/forum/showthread.php?t=44872) here in the past. Now our martial media columnist, Dr. Craig Reid is at the 8th San Diego Asian Film Festival. (http://www.sdaff.org/) Check out his coverage of the event in his new article SAN DIEGO ASIAN FILM FESTIVAL: The See-World of Festivals (http://ezine.kungfumagazine.com/ezine/article.php?article=731), exclusively on KungFuMagazine.com (http://www.kungfumagazine.com).

[GeneChing]

Maybe I'll merge them. Maybe not. At least you made each one forum specific. There's only three, right?
