by Monica Castillo | DIG BOSTON October 23, 2013 "Coming to town for its fifth year, the Boston Asian American Film Festival will play the Brattle Square Theatre, Paramount Center’s Bright Family Screening Room, and the Josiah Quincy School from October 24th-27th to showcase something Hollywood rarely likes to share: Asian American actors, screenwriters, producers, cinematographers, and directors.
