We reveal the full lineup of the unique animated features section! Apart from the previously announced titles, we present Japanese and Taiwanese classics, Korean masterpieces of genre cinema, and the winner of this year's Annecy International Animation Film Festival.

12th Five Flavours Asian Film Festival continues to collaborate with AFA Academy, curating the section comprised of six major films from the Asian Film Awards and bringing them to the Polish audience in Warsaw.

As tradition has it, a couple of weeks before the beginning of Five Flavours we meet at a truly horrifying marathon. This year, Asian horrors rise from the dead thanks to three master storytellers, familiar to the Polish audiences.

Contemplative, minimalist compositions, combining the sounds of acoustic instruments with subtle electronics, Sri Lankan ritual dances with modern, avant-garde compositions in the background, explosively melodic jazz from Korea and homey Japanese melodies, a processed set of field recordings and a high-octane evening dance party with Indian bhangra – this, in short, is this year’s program of Radio Asia.

New Asian Cinema is a survey of the most outstanding and widely debated new films from South and Southeast Asia, often directorial debuts. The filmmakers competing for the festival Grand Prix make bold comments about the surrounding reality and contemporary social issues. 

The latest film by one of the most important Japanese filmmakers is featured in the Special Screenings section of the upcoming edition of the Festival.

12. Five Flavours Film Festival programme will have long-awaited section dedicated to Asian animation. We announce first titles. 

Once again, Five Flavours invites you to discover Asian reality from the inside. The Festival is a perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in gripping pop culture, take part in heated debates about the crucial social changes, and to see the works of renown masters of cinema.

The Arteria Art Foundation, the organizer of the Five Flavours Asian Film Festival and the Radio Asia Festival received the Grand S3KTOR 2017 award for its overall activity.
