🎥 Honored to have the chance to curate a session of short films to go alongside the
@1300.info We’re From Out of Space documentary at the Sydney Opera House- on Sunday June 2.
@berni.jiang and I have crafted a cultural smorgasbord of Asian rappers, Asian stoners, sad films, happy films and fun films.
This collection includes short documentaries, experimental works, music videos, and narrative films exploring subcultures, identity, and coming-of-age stories within the Asian Diaspora worldwide.
Huge thanks to
@overthis199x and
@rosepophalf from
@nownessasia for their help with the curation, the amazing filmmakers,
@callum_._cooper and Stu Buchanan at the Opera House for this opportunity. Can’t wait to share these special films with you all.
