The 14th annual Newport Beach Film Festival takes place April 25th to May 2nd, 2013 and will feature over 300 films from around the world.  As Orange County’s premiere film event, the Newport Beach Film Festival is special because it’s one of the few major film festivals that features an Asian Showcase event.

The Newport Beach Film Festival Asian Showcase, scheduled for the evening of April 29th, will “pay homage to the film industry and celebrate the extensive Asian history and culture whose influence has inspired many aspects of art across all mediums.”  The evening will feature three film screenings, followed by a gala celebration of Asian film, food and culture.  This year’s spotlight films are:  A Werewolf Boy, One Mile Above and Key of Life.

As an official partner of the Newport Beach Film Festival Asian Showcase, Asians On Film is delighted to offer a $5 discount code that can be applied to any of the three Asian Showcase films mentioned above.  Enter code AOFNBFF during the checkout process on the Newport Beach Film Festival’s website to apply the discount.

Make sure you also get tickets to the Asian Showcase gala celebration so you can mingle with your fellow film buffs and enjoy hors d’oeuvres from award-winning restaurants along with a hosted bar (read: free alcohol) by Stella Artois and Absolut!

I hope to see everyone at the Newport Beach Film Festival Asian Showcase.  This is an opportunity to show the world that there is a market and a demand for Asian and Asian-American cinema!
