Celebrating its 30th anniversary, Arts East-West proudly presents the 13th edition of the Montreal Asian International Film Festival (MAiFF), running from May 14th to June 13th, 2026, across nine venues in Tiohtià:ke/Montréal. This landmark edition marks the official transformation of the Korean Film Festival Canada (KFFC) into MAiFF: a bold new platform launching during Asian Heritage Month, featuring more than 60 Asian arthouse films and events under the 2026–2027 theme “Tangibility: Soil, Body, Stories.”
The festival presents three programming categories — KFFC, AmérAsia, and East Meets West — reflecting the organization’s 30-year commitment to Asian and Asian-Canadian arts. Films from Canada, China, Germany, Hong Kong, Iran, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Australia, the United States, and First Nations communities will be screened across Cinéma du Musée, Cinéma Moderne, Cinéma du Parc, Goethe-Institut Montréal, Ada X, Groupe Intervention Vidéo, Place Ville Marie, Korean Community Association of Montreal, and Providence St-Dominique.
