Announcing the 13 Selections for the
2022 Asian Cinema Fund(ACF)!
Busan International Film Festival’s Asian Cinema Fund (ACF), a forerunner in discovering new Asian cinema with its robust and systematic production support fund, has announced its final 13 selections for this year’s ACF.

ACF, which was put on hold for two years due to the outbreak of COVID-19, has announced the 13 final selections from a total of 521 submissions for three production support categories; Script Development Fund, Post-Production Fund, Asian Network of Documentary(AND) Fund. This year’s projects are garnering much expectation with its sharp perspective on various topics including labor, climate change, history, and politics, as well as participation from a diverse range of directors.

ACF, now under the leadership of Asian Contents & Film Market (ACFM), aims to strengthen business ties and cooperation between selected films and market programs. As a part of this effort, the three Incubating Fund selections will be invited to the Asian Project Market (APM) and provided business meeting opportunities for investment and co-production.

Films completed through ACF have shown successful precedents, being officially invited to major international film festivals, including the Busan International Film Festival. Such accomplishments are raising expectations for the projects that will be completed at the 2022 ACF.
