How It All Started
by Barbara Lee, VAFF founder & president
One decade, 10 years, 3652 days, 87,648 hours, or 5,258,880 minutes, it’s hard to believe that it’s been this long since the first Vancouver Asian Film Festival was held at Robson Square Conference Centre in 1997. Since 2000, VAFF has found a new home at Cinemark Tinseltown – at the junction of Gastown, Yaletown and Chinatown. A fitting location as VAFF represents the cross-section of all these Vancouver communities – diversity, growth and heritage.
