UPDATE: BECOME A STAR AT THE 10th Anniversary Festival!
Hello Friends!
I know you've already received many requests to support a cause this holiday season, but I hope you will consider making a very SMALL contribution that could make a BIG difference during a year that's projected to be the hardest year for nonprofits in decades.
For a minimum $10 donation, we will hang a STAR with your name on it at our next festival so that patrons can see your support for the arts and for the SDAFF. Get one or as many stars as you'd like, and you can even name stars for your friends and family!
While $10 for you could mean 3 lattes, 2 bowls of pho, or a DVD... for us, your $10 donation collectively means a longer film festival, better film programming, more filmmakers/actors in attendance, and a chance to "own" a part of our 10th anniversary. All donations are tax-deductible!
The San Diego Asian Film Festival is an annual event of the San Diego Asian Film Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting and promoting the diverse Pan Asian experience through the media arts.
Since 2000, the San Diego Asian Film Festival has premiered hundreds of films and videos from around the world, gaining an international reputation as one of North America's premiere Asian American film festivals for our excellent programs, outreach to the community, and support for independent artists.
Our emphasis is on Asian American cinema, but we also showcase international films, along with shorts, animation, experimental films and music videos.

Many thanks for the add. Hope you enjoy the music and message behind it. My mission in life is to fight Human Trafficking. understanding the individual pain of others is sometimes to painful for an other individual to touch and that is frightening ... what i mean is that someone whose life is not traumatized and brutalized as a regular sequence of every day events unconsciously seeks the camouflage and shelter of apathy and banality from the reality of such devastating anguish and terror ...
but the spirit of young people who are used as sex slaves in the systematized global industry of human trafficking is now reaching out to the human fellowship in hope and desperation and through technology ...
it is scary when humanity turns a blind eye to this horror ... its like ignoring genocide whilst it is happening ...
what i am asking is that if you hear the cry of these young people who are existing in an environment of torture and brutality each and every day that you then please do not turn away from them ...
please reach deeply into your heart and soul and please in 2009 join a movement or become a part of an event that challenges modern slavery in the 21st century ...
