This event is to celebrate the launch of a book WHEN EAST MEETS EAST where 9 writers from 8 different countries discuss the landscape of the Asian film industry. Starting with the foreword of KOFIC's chairman, writers and interviewees share their perspectives on co-production and film networking in Asia. Wishing this book will be another endeavor to bolster multilateral partnership among ASEAN countries, the editor walks us through 6 essays and 5 interviews with his own insights and reflection.
