SAAFF is a Seattle-based film festival that centers pan-Asian American voices expressed through multimedia arts. It is a volunteer-run organization that aims to uplift Asian American creatives and strengthen community connections through its annual festival and year-round events. The festival seeks to broaden understanding of the community's stories by presenting independent films that reflect the diversity of Asian Americana and Asian diasporas. The festival traces its roots to the Northwest Asian American Film Festival, which ran from 2003 to 2007, and was revived in 2013 under new leadership, adopting the current name SAAFF. Based in Seattle, Washington, the organization operates with a volunteer base and a small staff, and leadership has evolved over time, with Victoria Ju serving as the sole executive director following the 2024 festival.
