This programme includes work by Thao Nguyen Phan, Nguyễn Trinh Thi, Minjung Kim, Yuyan Wang, Tulapop Saenjaroen, Maria Estela Paiso, Taiki Sakpisit, Boren Chhith, Pom Bunsermvicha and Riar Rizaldi.

A special programme presenting a selection of Margaret Tait's evocative films, all screened in their original 16mm format.
