For much of the world, Asian cuisine is often seen as just a menu category rather than a rich tapestry of histories from a vast continent.

Having Asian cuisine represented and judged by chefs with deep, personal connections to the...

Patsy Lo has just flown into Hong Kong from Tokyo, where she is now based, and the humidity is doing what humidity does. It is a far cry from Patagonia, where just months ago, Lo and a small arts team from Asia spent days hiking in punishing conditions to shoot Anamnesis II.

Why Oliver Stone’s Snowden film remains a terrifying surveillance warning 10 years on

Oliver Stone is no stranger to controversy. Whether exploring conspiracy theories in JFK, attacking the media in Natural Born Killers or cosying up to authoritarian leaders such as Vladimir Putin and Hugo Chavez for his documentaries, he has never been afraid to fight to get his voice heard.
