July’s PAAFF Film Club will be centered around our first animated feature: Marjane Satrapi’s Persepolis.

A 2007 adaptation of her graphic novel of the same name, Persepolis is an inventive expressionist coming-of-age story about one girl’s journey into womanhood during and following the 1979 Iranian Revolution.

Our July PAAFF Film Club meeting will be on July 10 at 1PM ET. Persepolis is available for rent on Vudu and iTunes.

Make sure you join the PAAFF Film Club Discord server if you’re interested in continuing the conversation outside of our monthly meetings!

The Philadelphia Asian American Film Festival (PAAFF) Preview Party is a free public event that will provide a sneak peek of what to expect at our upcoming annual film festival, scheduled for November 7th - 17th. We will unveil this year’s theme, the festival trailer, and trailers of the feature films. Guests will get an overview of the programming, including non-film events such as panels, performances, and parties as well as VIP guests attending the festival.

We have added a new element to our preview party this year. We will host a mini-marketplace to support and provide a platform for our local AAPI makers and businesses. We will also feature a local indie band, Moonroof.
