About this Event

Welcome to our 4th UCLA TFT API Film Night on May 8th, 2026!

To celebrate the achievements of our diverse Asian and Pacific Islander (API) communities at UCLA Department of Theater, Film & Television (TFT), we plan to launch our 4th API Film Night at the James Bridge Theater on May 8th, 2026. During the night, we screen 5 films made by AAPI filmmakers from both current undergraduates, graduates, and alumni of TFT. Our Q&As would be moderated by our amazing curator/moderator/scholar/critics Nancy Wang Yuen: https://www.nancywyuen.com

Reception followed the event. Come join us!

We also need your support!

While we're working with a tight budget, we're determined to keep the tradition of API Film Night alive and thriving at UCLA and beyond. Your contribution, no matter the size – whether it's $5, $10, or $15 – will make a world of difference. Let's come together to ensure that API voices continue to shine brightly in the world of filmmaking.
