Saturday, 26th of May 2012 at 05:07:34 PM2010 and 2011 the Munich Asia Film Festival had been cancelled. I had since 2006 more and more liked this Fimfestival. Not knowing what would happen in 2012 I visited this spring the biggest Asia Fim Festival in Europe which is the “Far East Film Festival” held in Udine, northern Italy. It is always packed with new asian films and special guests. This year Johnnie To presented two own movies and additionally 4 young hongKong Filmmakers which had won prices for the HongKong Fresh Wave contest. I really liked Udine, Triest and theis small but nice FF. Sure will go again there.
Although I was there only 3 days, I watched 10 movies, saw 1 world premiere with Thermae Romane (Japan). The films I liked most was “Rent-a-Kat” (Jap) and “Dangerously Excited” (Kor).
