FIRST-PERSON ASIAN AMERICAN: 11 DOCUMENTARIES
criterionchannel.com/first-p…
As independent Asian American filmmakers took the matter of self-representation into their own hands, many turned inward: to their own families, personal histories, and private musings.

Peppermint Candy is one of the films that made me fall in love with South Korean Cinema. Tonight you can see it at MOPA thx to @husbrian & @PacArtsMovement . It's brilliant and heartbreaking

Scale of the protest tonight in Shanghai. Notice police didn’t do anything but standing calmly watching ppl protest and shouting. It’s not benevolence. My guess: they need to ask for directives from the top authorities. Police might be stunned as nobody dares doing so for decades

Shanghai people were chanting and singing. Slogans being shouted including “ we went freedom not virus check.” “ we want democracy not dictatorship”. “ put down ccp”. It’s unbelievable 33 years after Tiananmen Square movement such slogans could be shouted out loudly on CH streets

During this Oscar campaign season, Lauren Greenfield's documentary about Imelda Marcos is stirring controversy. Turns out ‘The Kingmaker’ (2019) is a remake of Ramona Diaz’s ‘Imelda’ (2004)! #oscarssowhite #decolonizethedocumentary Check out my post: blog.oup.com/2019/11/the-kin…
