The 1st Asian Film Awards occurred on March 20, 2007 on the opening night of the 31st Hong Kong International Film Festival (HKIFF) in Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. It honoured the best film achievements of the Asian cinema in the year 2006. It was attended by about 4000 guests from around the world.

Eminent filmmakers and superstars from around the world are invited to bestow awards upon the winner(s) of each category, making the ceremony a dazzling extravaganza as well as an influential cultural event.
The trophy
In February 13, 2007, the Hong Kong Trade Development Council hosted a celebration of the I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK announcement of being the opening film for the 31st Hong Kong International Film Festival at a reception in Berlin. At the same event the AFA trophy, designed by award-winning production designer, William Chang, was also unveiled.
This is a list of groups, organizations and festivals that recognize achievements in cinema, usually by awarding various prizes. The awards sometimes also have popular unofficial names (such as the 'Oscar' for Hollywood's Academy Awards), which are mentioned if applicable. Many awards are simply identified by the name of the group presenting the award.
Awards have been divided into four major categories: Critics' Awards, voted on (usually annually) by a group of critics; Festival Awards, awards presented to the best film shown in a particular film festival; Industry Awards, which are selected by professionals working in some branch of the movie industry; and Audience Awards, which are voted by the general public.
Critics' awards

FIPRESCI (Fédération Internationale de la Presse Cinématographique) or International Film Critics Award given by the International Federation of Film Critics at various film festivals

(19 Mar 2012) RED CARPET EXTRAORDINAIRE AT THE ASIAN FILM AWARDS
The creme de la creme of Asian cinema gathered at the 6th annual Asian Film Awards (AFA) in Hong Kong on Monday (19 MAR. 2012).
Best Actress nominee Leila Hatami made the red carpet a family affair, bringing her husband and children along.
Hatami said that she was excited to be in Hong Kong for the AFA and is very proud of "A Separation" and all its achievements:
"It's a very good reward - the fact that you have been so warmly received and you had such a big audience. This is the best thing for a crew who have made a film," she explained.
Hatami's fellow nominee Deanie Yip walked the red carpet with "A Simple Life"'s director Ann Hui.
Hatami and Yip are the favorites to win in the Best Actress category, but Yip insisted, "everyone has equal chances of winning."
Hong Kong actress Karen Mok attended the AFA as a presenter this year, and spoke about being cast in Keanu Reeve's directorial debut, "Man of Tai Chi," which is currently shooting in Beijing.
"I'm preparing myself for it. Yeah, I'll be starting to shoot next month," she smiled.
Japanese actor (and past-year nominee) Joe Odagiri will also be presenting at this year's AFA.
"This year, how to put it� I'm presenting an award. So I feel very relaxed," he revealed.
Chinese actress Ni Ni gave a stellar debut performance in Zhang Yi Mou's "The Flowers of War," and is nominated in the Best Newcomer category.
But Ni Ni says that for her it's not about winning:
"To be able to come here, and meet so many outstanding talents who I used to look up to, I'm already very happy," she admitted.
Ni's fellow nominee, Taiwanese actor Ko Chen Tung, also gave a breakthrough performance in his first feature film, "You Are the Apple of My Eye".
The film became the best selling Chinese language film to ever be released in Hong Kong.
Ko said that he feels the love from Hong Kong, and promised Hong Kong fans that they'll be seeing more of him.
"I really love Hong Kong. I'll be filming here in the future. I really like this place," he said.
The AFA is dedicated to honor the best of Asian cinema.
In addition to the competing categories, 2 special awards will be handed out.
Hong Kong director Ann Hui receives Lifetime Achievement Award for her contribution to Asian cinema.
Indonesian director Edwin will receive the Edward Yang New Talent Award.
Fans can also cast votes for their favorite actors and actress online for the People's Choice Awards.
