Celebrating 10 Years of LAIFF

LAIFF celebrated its 10th anniversary with the theme The Rise of Indonesian Horror, highlighting the growing global appeal of Indonesian horror cinema. The festival premiered two Indonesian horror feature films in the United States, and collaborated with the Jogja-NETPAC Asian Film Festival (JAFF) and Indonesia's Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy—now the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Indonesia—to curate a selection of Indonesian short films.
