SDAFF - 9th Annual Film Festival
Well, it's that time of year again! I took the week off, so I could see most of the best films and documentaries. This year for the first time, there will be screenings at UCR (University of California at Riverside) Home of Daynah! :)
First night was awesome! Featuring Ping Pong Playa - an Asian-American comedy by Jessica Yu, staring Jimmy Tsai, Roger Fan and Smith Cho... I have pictures on my Flickr featured below.

Festival Information
About the Festival
The San Diego Asian Film Festival is an
annual event of the San Diego Asian Film Foundation, a nonprofit
organization dedicated to supporting and promoting the diverse Pan
Asian experience through the media arts.
We’ve been around since 2000, premiering
films from around the world. Our emphasis is on Asian American cinema,
but we also showcase international films, along with shorts, animation,
experimental films and music videos. Along with films, patrons will be
able to meet and speak with filmmakers and actors, enjoy meaningful
discussions, and enjoy nightly parties.
Most of all, we pride ourselves in being a
well-organized, friendly festival made of people who are passionate
about life and learning.
