Political Films Get Top Billing at Asia-Friendly Rotterdam Festival

This week’s “Two The Point with Patrick Frater & Janine Stein” comes to you from the front lines of the International Film Festival Rotterdam (IFFR), where Patrick has been racing between screenings of Asian films, taking in everything from big-budget Japanese features and silly Korean comedy to titles that have raised political hackles across the region. He talks about the festival’s distinctive positioning and its refusal to be cowed by censorship, institutional power, or controversy and his top two picks so far – campaigning feature documentary “Seoul Guardians” about political events in Korea in December 2024 when the president attempted to impose martial law, and “Deadline” by Hong Kong director Kiwi Chow, which has been banned in Hong Kong on national security grounds and is now circulating internationally. PLUS our headlines of the week… "Two The Point with Patrick Frater & Janine Stein" is your weekly briefing on Asia’s screen entertainment business.
