To discover Asian genre films and expand the base of genre film production, BIFAN NAFF selects excellent projects, gives them awards and supports them. The NAFF main juries select excellent projects through a fair evaluation through individual meetings with the projects that are selected through a preliminary screening. The awards is divided to two categories. A film production cost support in cash and a post-production support.
NAFF has committed to focus its support on genre films and genre filmmakers who have had difficulties in production in the aftermath of Covid-19, and established a process of cooperation significantly expanding the support areas. In addition, to support new filmmakers who bring new life into genre films, NAFF has established and awarded new awards of Discovery of Asia Award and Discovery of Korea Award since 2020.
Lastly, BIFAN NAFF continues to cooperate diverse bodies such as Seoul Business Agency (SBA) and Mocha Chai Laboratories of Singapore for discovery of excellent audio video content, business agreement and post production support. The VIPO Award provides cash support, and the TAICCA Award, which is newly established this year, also offers cash support.
