When an aspiring Chinese actress is told in an audition "You should be more Chinese," she is confused.

This genre-breaking documentary explores the issues of ethnic and cultural identity through interviews with some of today's most prominent Asian and Chinese American filmmakers, actors and actresses in the United States, Canada, Taiwan and China.

Explores the experience of Asians in America through interviews with members of two Asian-American families, interspersed with images and stereotypes of Asians as portrayed in popular culture and film.

D769.8.A6 R33 1999   Video Collection Wilson 2 West

Summary:  A documentary/memoir about the lingering effects of the World War II internment of the Japanese American community. Visually
stunning and emotionally compelling, the film examines issues that ultimately created deep rifts within the Japanese American community, reveals the racist subtext of the loyalty questionnaire and exposes the absurdity of the military draft within the camps. These testimonies are linked by the filmmakers' own experiences in the camps and placed in a larger historical context by the  director.
