'The Asia Pacific Screen Awards (APSA) acclaims, at a global level, the cinematic excellence and cultural diversity of the vast Asia-Pacific region. The region's highest accolade in film, APSA is the only awards program in the world to link to a globally broadcast documentary series.
'Established in 2007, APSA is an international cultural initiative of the Queensland State Government, Australia, through Queensland Events Corporation Pty Ltd. It brings together, in a unique collaboration Paris-based UNESCO and FIAPF-International Federation of Film Producers Associations.
'The initiative honours the works of filmmakers across a vast region stretching from Egypt in the west to the Cook Islands in the east, and from Russia in the north to New Zealand in the south. In total, an area representing four billion people; 60 percent of the global population; 70 countries and areas; one third of the earth; and half the world's film output.'
