EIFF - "Why Do You Have A Beard?," "Journey of a Paper Son" and Multiracial Identity"
"Why Do You Have A Beard?"
Inspired by an airport security question, this short film presents the rich ethnic diversity of humanity as animated faces morph from one culture to the next.
"Journey of a Paper Son"
Dying from cancer, an elderly Chinese man shocks his family when he asks to be buried under his real name, a name unknown to the family. He was a victim of the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, repealed in 1943. In 2009 the California legislature passed a landmark bill apologizing for racist laws, including the federal Chinese Exclusion Act.
"Multiracial Identity"
Multiracial people are the fastest growing demographic in America, yet there is no official recognition for mixed-race people. "Multiracial Identity" lays bare the social, political, and religious impact of this emerging culture.
