Na programu će biti 58 dugometražnih igranih filmova iz Kine (6), Hong Konga (10), Tajvana (3), Japana (10), Južne Koreje (10), Tajlanda (1), Malezije (2), Indonezije (2), Filipina (2) i Singapura (1), a projekcije će se održavati u dvoranama Teatro Nuovo Giovanni da Udine i Visionario. Na festivalu će biti svjetske premijere dvaju filmova – japanskoga ‘Thermae Romae’ Takeuchija Hidekija i hongkonškoga ‘The Bounty’ Funga Chih-chianga, po prvi će se put u Europi prikazati 10 japanskih filmova (među kojima jedan okratki o tragediji u Fukushimi) te filmovi s festivala Fresh Wave di Hong Kong čiji je direktor slavni Johnnie To. Na programu je i film s najvećom zaradom na kinoblagajnama u Aziji prošle godine, tajvanski ‘You Are the Apple of My Eye’ redatelja Giddensa.

Retrospektiva ‘The Darkest Decade’ donosi 10 naslova gotovo potpuno nepoznatih na Zapadu, koje su režirali korejski redatelji iz 70-ih, iz doba mračne dekade kada je, unatoč cenzuri i diktaturi generala Parka Chung Heea, nastalo niz filmskih remek-djela.

Posebni gost festivala bit će slavni hongkonški redatelj Johnnie To koji će dobiti festivalsku nagradu za cjelokupnu karijeru.
