Olivia Khoo discusses her new book, Asian Cinema: A Regional View. The book examines the transformations that have occurred Asia’s film industries in the last 30 years. From bilateral co-production agreements to pan-Asian financing, Asian cinema has assumed a regional identity beyond its constituent national cinemas. The book examines the dynamic industrial and cultural developments that have enabled greater co-operation and integration between Asia’s film industries. This talk will outline what is at stake in providing a 'regional view' of Asian cinema, particularly in the context of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
