The fifth annual Ithaca Pan Asian American Film Festival is here! Please join us from 5:30-7:30 pm on Friday, October 12th and from 2:00-6:00 pm on Saturday, October 13th at Cinemapolis. Reception to follow on Saturday night at the Argos Warehouse Event Space. The festival is free and open to the public, and the full schedule appears below.

The Ithaca Pan Asian American Film Festival was created by Ithaca College alumna Katie Quan to support Asian American and Pacific Islander film, video, and media makers both in upstate New York and nationwide. It aims to combat the shortage of Asian American stories in mainstream popular culture by sharing diverse stories about the Asian American experience with the Ithaca community.

All screenings will be held at Cinemapolis (120 E Green Street).
