ASI presents this year's best Canadian productions on digital media. They are grouped under the theme of 'Crossroad'.

About Accès Asie

Festival Accès Asie or Montreal Asian Heritage Festival was created in 1995. It was founded by artists and its mission is to present multidisciplinary works from dance, comedy, drama, video, film, visual arts, music, artistic scenes, and new media. The festival presents the work of artists who express themselves in different styles, whether sacred or profane, ancient or modern, classic or contemporary. Each year Accès Asie organizes in Montreal, four events of multidisciplinary activities that consist of works by Asian Canadian artists. The festival takes place each year during the month of May which is Asian Heritage Month. ASI is one of the Festival's activities that features youth.

About the Contest

Whether it is a video portrait, an audiovisual poem, a work of fiction, a type of animation, an artistic or philosophical attempt, an experimental video or simply a documentary, every form is appropriate for expressing this view. Prizes will be awarded by a jury to the most outstanding productions.
