    A total of 37 scripts were submitted from Brisbane, Dhaka, Fukuoka, Kuala Lumpur, Mumbai, Shanghai, Sydney and Tokyo this year, which is up from 33 last year.

     

    All 37 scripts will be judged by the Film Craft and New Director jury, which is led by jury president Sihabutr Xoomsai, Thailand’s award-winning director at Triton Film in Bangkok.
