The 2012 Korean American Film Festival LA Flixist roundup

The 2012 Korean American Film Festival LA Flixist roundup photo



[Last week, we covered the the First Annual Korean American Film Festival Los Angeles, which took place at the Korean Cultural Center LA from August 9th through the 11th. For all of our coverage, head here.]

It hasn't even been two weeks since we finished our coverage of NYAFF and Japan Cuts, but we're already wrapping on another festival. However, with no more festivals on the immediate horizon, we can take a bit of a break. So that's nice, but if you're actually reading this, you're probably curious about what we just finished with. Well, this year was the first annual Korean American Film Festival Los Angeles, a sister festival to the annual KAFF in New York. It's a very small festival, showing only 5 features as well as a few shorts, but it had some interesting stuff none. On the whole, we definitely preferred the documentaries to the narrative works, though.

Regardless, we're hoping that the fest was a success though, because we definitely want it to come back bigger and even better. But first, break.

The 2013 New York Korean Film Festival should be awesome

Last year's New York Korean Film Festival was awesome. It had a great selection, including one film that I now count among my favorites of all time. I have been looking forward to NYKFF's return ever since, and I don't h...

New York City First Time Fest focuses on filmmaker debuts

As cool as it is to be one of the first people to see the next thing by established filmmakers at film festivals, it's the new stuff that's really exciting. Debuts are rarely the most polished or effective efforts, but they s...

Sundance 2013: Top five films of the festival (and more)

Another Sundance, another 27 films reviewed. Though this is only my third year, Sundance 2013 is by far the greatest one I attended yet. Even bolder, I'll say that it may be the greatest in the festival's history. Looking bac...

Sundance 2013: Top ten most anticipated films of the fest

Going through the catalog of Sundance films feels a bit like Christmas. Discovering the latest actor-turned-director debut, long awaited sophomore effort, and film description too bizarre to pass up almost makes scheduling th...

Sundance 2013: We're here and freezing

One year, one poorly packed suitcase, and one regretful purchase of one $200 coat at American Apparel later, Sundance is here again and here I am in it, freezing and happy. 2012 was my first year as honest-to-goodness press...
