Synopsis: | Set on the outskirts of Fort Bragg, a troubled Asian American woman returns to her family's donut/egg roll shop in the army town of Fayetteville, North Carolina. During one momentous night, she tries to iron out her relationship with her mother and meets a young African American army private about to be deployed to Iraq. All three try to connect despite uncertainty of the future, and the soft-spoken racism and claustrophobia of those stuck on the fringes of military life. | |||||

Synopsis: | Life in Hong Kong for 13-year-old Tuppy and her guardian uncle is a magnificent world of horse racing, chinchillas and make believe. But as the 1997 handover of Hong Kong to mainland China looms, their untraditional family must scramble to devise an exit strategy. At once a charming comedy and a complex drama, Happy Valley explores racism between Asian ethnic groups, the struggles of adolescence, and the life changing nature of emigration. | |||||

Synopsis: | a womb-eye-view of three generations of Chinese-Americans in California that are afraid of change. The third generation, still in utero, refuses to be born, preferring to remain in the womb to enjoy his powers of communicating with the living, unborn and dead and to avoid being discriminated against because of his bi-racial ancestry. Old Wang, the grandfather, is lost in the past, while Edmund, his son, romanticizes it. Molly is afraid to have the baby because she fears motherhood. The discovery of a demon among them who plans to steal their future if they do not face change provides the impetus for this family to face the inevitable. | |||||
