Description
Summary:After running successfully for twenty years, the Far East Film Festival (FEFF) in Udine, Italy, has become established as the most important overseas festival devoted to East Asian popular cinema. The Hong Kong Film Festival remains one of its main sources ever since the Centro Espressioni Cinematografiche of Udine began to display an interest in East Asian cinema by organising its first programme of Hong Kong films in 1998. Another key source of inspiration for FEFF is the Busan Film Festival in South Korea, from which FEFF takes both recently released and restored popular films.
