The mission of AsianAmericanFilm.com is to build an engaged, involved, active, and excited audience for Asian American films.
Why bother?
First, good films deserve to be seen and audiences deserve to see good films. By getting the word out, AsianAmericanFilm.com will maximize joy on all ends by getting films and viewers together. Hooray! Second, getting more people out to see Asian American films is the key to getting more Asian American films made, thereby fighting the much-lamented negative images of Asians in mainstream American media.
Here’s how it works:
Film financing requires stars. So Asian American filmmakers will continue to have great difficulty finding financing for films with Asian American characters as long as the pool of Asian American stars remains so small. But actors only become stars when they’re in financially successful films. Thus, by building the audience for Asian American films, this website will make it more likely that good Asian American features will get their audiences, become financially successful, and break the Catch-22 preventing the financing of Asian American films.

Pan Asian Rep is the professional theatre founded to celebrate Asian American artistic expressiveness on the living stage. It became a major New York theatre presence in 1983 with the long off-Broadway run of Yellow Fever, introducing the tough Japanese private eye with a heart of gold, Sam Shikaze. The company grew out of Tisa Chang’s experimental work at LaMama ETC with a core of Asian actors in such benchmark bi-lingual productions as the Peking Opera adaptation of Return of the Phoenix and the intercultural version of A Midsummer Night’s Dream.
