CURRENT PROJECTS

“Reminiscence” Chinatown Film Project

Posted: Thursday, July 09, 2009



The AAFilmLab partnered with MOCA and APEX to provide a mentor who could guide a high school student's endeavor at creating their first short film. "Reminiscence" is one of the films completed. This film is now part of MOCA's Chinatown Film Project YouTube Channel.

The synopsis:
A young girl celebrates her grandmother's birthday as they reminisce about the grandfather who has recently passed away. We travel back in memory to 1965 - the grandparents, as a young couple, overcome what looks to be the end of their burgeoning relationship when the grandfather returns to China to tend to his sick mother.
