The event is part of the activities to celebrate the 50th founding anniversary of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).

Its intention is to honour Viet Nam’s best movies, and introduce Viet Nam’s new cinema products to audiences.  In addition, it will be a good opportunity for domestic artists, and film producers and distributors, to share their experience in this field.

It affirms the important role played by the cinema industry in promoting images and culture of the country, traditional friendship and cooperation amongst the ASEAN member nations via the Film ASEAN Awards initiated by Viet Nam.

Various activities will be held during this event.  Included are seminars featuring the development of the Viet Nam and ASEAN film industry, film screening week, an exhibition on the Vietnamese cinema, and arts exchanges.
