The Asian American Film Lab is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization devoted to the promotion and support of gender and ethnic diversity in film and television programming. Through four branches, AAFL TV and the 72 Hour Shootout, an annual, high-profile filmmaking competition organized with the support of Asian CineVision and the Asian American International Film Festival, we work to ensure that stories and voices too often silenced in mainstream media are heard, not just as whispers, but as shouts to the world.
