Running time: 15 min screening
Synopsis:
In Ana’s Time, a young Asian-American writer attempts to direct a
film based on a script her domineering, Caucasian step-father wrote, in
order to make sense of her abusive past in the isolated environs of rural
Texas. Thematic oppositions, based on the step-daughter/step-father
relationship, their racial differences, and the locales of Texas and
Boston provide the basis for Ana’s story as she struggles with
self-assimilation. Her relationships with various men also provides
the backdrop for her sense of closure as she begins constructing the film
after her step-father’s death.
