Asia’s top film festival in crisis

March 31, 2016 robert Leave a Comment

Seoul, South Korea - The future of Asia’s top film festival is being threatened by a bitter dispute over what organisers are calling an unacceptable political challenge to their artistic independence, with moviemakers pushing an "empty red carpet" boycott of this year’s event. The Busan International Film Festival (BIFF) -- held every October in the South Korean port of Busan -- marked its 20 anniversary last year, but celebrations were soured by a lingering row that has since snowballed into a full-blown crisis. A flurry of official probes targeting its organisers and an unprecedented cut in state funding have raised serious doubts over the event's artistic and financial viability. Artistic director Lee Yong-Kwan was forced to step down in February, even as his counterparts from other top international film festivals like Cannes and Berlin wrote an open letter warning that political pressure was threatening BIFF's future. Organisers say they have become targets of … [Read more...] about Asia’s top film festival in crisis

Exhibition "Everything is Golden" by Michelle Wise Opening: Thu 29 Oct 2015, 6 pm Exhibition: 29 Oct - 12 Nov 2015 Spacebar Cafe 15/76 To Ngoc Van, Tay Ho Dist, Hanoi Join us for the opening of "EVERYTHING IS GOLDEN", a selection of paintings and contemporary lacquer by Michelle Wise. "EVERYTHING IS GOLDEN" is a series of works developed out of Wise's personal interest in using colours and simple geometric shapes to explore how spatial and color relationships have the power to evoke emotional responses. Inspired by non-objective abstract expressionists such as Joseph Albas and Mark Rothkoe and drawing on Vietnamese and other Asian cultural artistic traditions, this series utilizes lacquer work and gold leaf in contemporary ways. Her work thematically focuses on shape and form within these media; eliciting a sense of spiritualism while avoiding reference to religious iconography. Born in 1975, Michelle comes from Whanganui, New Zealand. She hitchhiked out of town with nothing but a … [Read more...] about WHAT’S ON OCTOBER 15-31 (DAILY UPDATE)

Dirty food delivered straight to nurseries A food processing facility in Hanoi have been suspended for providing unhygienic food to many local nurseries. Hai Anh food processing facility at Trung Van Market is one of the well-known distributors to many local nurseries for years. Pham Thi Thu Anh, owner of the facility, said their food were expensive because they were fresh. Their shrimp cost VND450,000 (USD20.50) per kilo and basa fish cost over VND100,000 per kilo. Anh said she had business licences to sell meat, aqua-products, beverages and vegetables. However, according to the locals, the food processing facility at Trung Van Market is actually an electronic shop. Whenever there is an inspection, it will be temporarily transformed into a food processing facility. In reality, all the work is being done at an unnamed kiosk at Long Bien Market where the conditions fail to meet regular standards. The fish are left lying on dirty ground near running waste water. Anh then let it slip … [Read more...] about Social News 24/6
