Aruna Vasudev Series: Creative Voices of the Asia Pacific
Aruna Vasudev Series: Creative Voices of the Asia Pacific
In this special In-Conversation event, an APSA-nominated director joins the Australian Directors’ Guild to share insights, challenges, and inspirations behind their body of work, including the APSA-nominated film. This session provides a unique platform for exploring the director’s creative journey and artistic vision. Named in honour of Aruna Vasudev, founder of NETPAC and often hailed as the mother of Asian cinema, the series celebrates her legacy by fostering dialogue and collaboration among the region’s most talented filmmakers.
The Asia Pacific Screen Academy expresses its respect for and acknowledgement of the South East Queensland Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. We pay our respects to the Traditional Owners of country, including the custodial communities on whose land works are created and celebrated by the Asia Pacific Screen Awards. We acknowledge the continuing connection to land, waters and communities. We also pay our respects to Elders, past and present. We recognise the integral role Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and First Nations peoples continue to play in storytelling and celebration spaces.
