FireAsia's quest for modernity has left many excluded from the affluence unfettered development has brought. People from Kazakhstan to the Philippines continue to struggle with daily existence, yet remain stoic in their capacity to rise above misfortune. In its seventh year, the Asia Society Summer Film Series documents the region’s people and their spirit in the face of adversity.
Escape with us in this celebration of ordinary life through the eyes and lenses of filmmakers from across the world. Join us as we follow an Indian chef’s adventures in the Swiss highlands; a mute boy from the slums of the Philippines as he discovers a love for music; a single father struggling to survive in the dangerous Chinese mines; a Jordanian airport janitor who inspires kids to dream big and fly high; and a troubled urban teenager who spends an idyllic summer in rural Japan with her English grandmother.
Voices of Asia offers a universal message of hope, aspiration and the triumph of the human spirit. "
