Hosted by: Angel Yau and Kate Moran

Caveat is planning to re-open at June!
We are planning to work with them and create a safe perhaps hybrid live/streaming event. Stay tuned!

AN ASIAN AMERICAN FILM THING is a celebration of Asian- American filmmakers by screening their shorts (films! Not pants!) There will be an array of narrative fiction, docs, animation, music videos, sketches, and experimental films. You will also get to hear what the filmmakers have to say about their work. AND, there will be a musical treat at the end! PARTYYYYY!!!! We want to focus on shorts that show Asian- Americans in power, in a light that Hollywood usually never portrays us in. This night will explore Identity and the power of visual storytelling.
