Did you notice there are no film festivals going on in Dallas right now? Sad times. But good news dropped in the inbox this morning: the Asian Film Festival, which kicks off on July 23, has announced the first four of 40 scheduled films. These include, from Hong Kong, Wilson Yip’s IP Man 2 and Jing Wong’s I Corrupt All Cops; from the United States, Arvin Chen’s Au Revoir Taipei; and from Japan, Noboru Iguchi’s Robogeisha (yes, awesomely enough, it is about exactly what it sounds like it is about). This year’s festival promises to be a larger affair, with the AFFD expanding to two venues (the Angelika and Magnolia, of course). You can find additional information about the festival here, and trailers after the jump.
