An Asia Pacific Cinema Documentary Heritage Conference took place in Manilla from 26-28 October. MOWCAP and the Asia Culture Center are very pleased to have supported (along with many others) this important initiative through our 2018 small grants program.
Moving images are how the memory of the world of the 20th and 21st centuries has been and is being captured, preserved and transmitted.
