As the curtains close on 2024 we want to extend our gratitude to all of our supporters for being part of the 17th Asia Pacific Screen Awards and 6th Asia Pacific Screen Forum.

This year we witnessed incredible stories from across the Asia Pacific, with films that inspired, challenged, and brought us closer to the diverse experiences of our region. The forum provided a platform for meaningful conversations, collaborations and insights that we hope will echo through the screen industry for years to come.

Highlights
• Awards Night: A spectacular evening celebrating cinematic excellence with incredible winner acceptance speeches and the return of the long nominees table in the middle of the room as a symbol of unity.
• Forum Discussions: Engaging panels, workshops, and networking sessions that brought together industry leaders and emerging talent.
• Themed Focus on "Land": Exploring the deep cultural, historical, and social significance of land through film and collaboration.

We had the incredible filmmakers Min Bahadur Bham (Shambhala) and Weijie Lai (Mongrel, Viet and Nam) discuss co-producing and the strategic reasons that drive filmmakers to co-produce internationally. Moderated by Julie Eckersley, the conversations had in the case study were incredibly insightful and shed a whole new light on the role of producer 🎥
