As a whole, "Wind from the East: New World Cinema, Asian Style" documents an alternative to Western brands of cinema even as these foreign directors in some instances integrate Western forms, styles, and genres into their own native traditions. As such, these artists could be said to represent a global filmmaking perspective that now, more than ever, this world--and in particular the American nation--can use. "Wind from the East" concludes with a bibliography and individual filmographies.
