The new edition of the Asian Film Festival Barcelona | AFFBCN 2020 will have an extensive program of films, meetings and dialogues, with the intention of contributing to the knowledge of cinematography that is not usually as present as others in commercial circuits. As in previous editions, we will have more than a hundred feature films from a vast territory that goes from Central Asia to Southeast Asia and from there to the Asia-Pacific region. With which we will be able to explore productions from more than twenty-five countries, from Iran and the former Soviet republics of Central Asia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan, to Afghanistan, India, Nepal, Bangladesh, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan (China), Mongolia, Korea, Japan, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, Singapore, Philippines, Indonesia, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam and the Asia-Pacific region with Australia and New Zealand. Understanding that every landscape is culturally mediated, diversity is a challenge for the viewer, who is offered instruments through its narratives to find out what the cinema of each of the countries mentioned here gives us. The almost 120 productions that will be presented this year have been made between 2018 and 2020, despite the fact that the majority are from 2019. They will be distributed, as in previous editions, between the Official, Official Panorama, Discoveries, Netpac and Special sections, all of them competition, in addition to the Kinuyo Tanaka Retrospective at the Filmoteca de Catalunya.
