Save the date! CAAMFest 2026 is only a few months away. Join us May 7–10 in San Francisco’s Japantown at AMC Kabuki for a celebration of films from Asian America. More details coming soon.

CAAM has embarked on an ambitious fundraising initiative: CAAM’s Campaign for the Future of Storytelling – to build on our promise to strengthen and sustain vital narratives about the Asian American experience, now and in the future.

With the loss of federal funding for CAAM and at a time when stories about Asian America are at risk of erasure, your support means everything.

If you care about the future of storytelling in America, please consider making a 100% tax-deductible donation to CAAM. Supporting CAAM isn’t just about helping one organization; it’s about investing in the infrastructure that allows more diverse, challenging, and necessary stories to exist.

To learn more and support, visit our link in bio or https://caamedia.org/caams-campaign-for-the-future-of-storytelling/

Our CAAMFest 2026 Opening Night is almost here!

THE A LIST: 15 Stories from Asian and Pacific Diasporas. What does it mean to be AAPI? Trailblazers from Sandra Oh to Sen. Tammy Duckworth, Kumail Nanjiani to Connie Chung and more, reflect with joy, humor and sorrow on navigating their prismatic identities and finding community in this HBO Original documentary. Directed by Eugene Yi.

Join us on May 7 for this exclusive screening at the AMC Kabuki, followed by the Gala at the Asian Art Museum. Tickets are now available at CAAMFest.com or via the link in bio.

Don’t miss the screening tonight for UNCOMMITTED at New People Cinema.

UNCOMMITTED, directed by Razi Jafri, follows Arab and Muslim grassroots leaders and their elected allies as they build the Uncommitted National Movement—pushing for a ceasefire in Gaza and challenging U.S. political priorities beyond the 2024 election.

Secure your tickets at CAAMFest.com > search UNCOMMITTED or visit the link in bio.

Supported by CAAM’s Building Bridges Documentary Fund, the screening will be followed by a Q&A with Razi Jafri, W. Kamau Bell, and select participants from the film.

@rajafri @peoplefirst.productions @dorisdukefdn @mpachollywoodbureau @islamicscholarshipfund

Catch it tonight, our Centerpiece Narrative, FORGE, directed by Jing Ai Ng.
