HBO Max's Asian American and Pacific Islander Voices collection is impressive in showing how rich and diverse Asian and AAPI stories and how deep the AAPI talent pool is. The streaming network's collection celebrates Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month starting Sunday, May 1.
The collection will amplify the streaming network's wide breadth of Asian American & Pacific Islander stories and talent by featuring curated content available on the platform, in addition to the three winning films from the HBO Max Asian Pacific American Visionaries Short Film Competition directed by up-and-coming AAPI directors.
The hours of curated programming include the pay-to-view streamer's slate of recent Max Originals such as "The Sex Lives of College Girls," "Tokyo Vice," "Take Out with Lisa Ling" and "House of Ho;" well known and iconic hits such as "In the Mood for Love," "Crazy Rich Asians," "Aquaman," and "Bend It Like Beckham," as well as Warner Brothers streaming exclusive "Moonshot."

But for filmophiles, it reminds us that the talent and stories have always been there. Although India's and China's great films are unfortunately missing, HBO Max offers Gen Z aspiring filmmakers a glimpse of the treasured classics such as the "Seven Samurai," "Rashomon" and "In the Mood for Love."
In addition to the Asian American & Pacific Islander Voices collection, HBO Max's collection pages also include Anime and More Global Animation, an anime-centric page which also includes content from Studio Ghibli.
During this year's AAPI Heritage Month, HBO Max will launch the Ani-May initiative, which includes a celebration of iconic anime moments old and new, fashion from Asian animation, Cartoon Network's "Adventure Time" and other episodes influenced by anime. In addition, an original meditative rainfall video from Makoto Shinkai's "Weathering With You," and a new Adult Swim episode of "Ambient Swim" inspired by '90s anime will be featured.
Now in its sixth year and with Poppy Liu from the Max Original Series "Hacks" serving as the 2022 ambassador, HBO Max's Asian Pacific American Visionaries Short Film Competition showcases the work of emerging filmmakers of Asian and Pacific Islander descent. The top three winning films will premiere at the Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival on May 6th.

This year's theme is titled "Power of Love," with submissions centering around Asian Pacific American perceptions of love in their relationships, friendships, or families. The top three winning films will be available to stream as part of the collection after the premiere in addition to previous year's winners "Neh," "Lonely Blue Night," "Fine China," "Si" and "Unmothered."
