Of 193 professionals, 36 countries, and 461 business meetings, Vietnamese directors made their mark at the 23rd Asian Project Market (Apm). The Asian Project Market — the largest investor market for film production in Asia, and sponsored by the Busan International Film Festival — took place virtually from 26th to 28th of October. Although the number of selected projects decreased from that of the previous year’s to 21 projects, this year’s Apm consolidates its position as the largest investment and co-production market in Asia with a high rate of business meeting arranged per project despite entirely virtual events.
This year’s winners include “Rom” director Tran Thanh Huy and “KFC” director Le Binh Giang, both of which show the notable growth of the Vietnamese film industry. Other awardees include “Duelist” director Lee Myung-se and Indian director Kislay. Kislay’s project “Commodity” has been particularly recognized as a highly-anticipated project for its promising artistic quality.
