Amanda Ann-Min WONG
Korean Premiere
documentary / queer / asian women
8mm home video footage and photos are shown, and audio of an interview with four Asian queer women is heard. Although it is a recollection of childhood, it is stated in the present tense as if describing a photograph or painting. This statement is experienced and remembered as both ¡°Asian (and diasporic)¡± and ¡°female¡± and ¡°queer,¡± and the film evokes an emotionally lasting impression. [HWANG Miyojo]
