AsiaPacificFilms.com streams cul­tur­ally and his­tor­i­cally sig­nif­i­cant films from Asia and the Pacific that enter­tain, edu­cate and inspire view­ers to think beyond bound­aries. With the lat­est stream­ing tech­nol­ogy, sub­scribers have unlim­ited access to our films in DVD quality.

In 2012, Alexan­der Street Press announced its new part­ner­ship with Asia Pacific Films, a com­pany ded­i­cated to pro­vid­ing stream­ing access to cul­tur­ally and his­tor­i­cally sig­nif­i­cant films from Asia and the Pacific. This part­ner­ship led to the devel­op­ment of Asian Stud­ies in Video, pre­dom­i­nantly com­prised of films never before seen out­side their coun­try of origin.
