An intimate poem that takes audiences on a journey of the misrepresenting labels of Asian Americans. Resurfacing issues the community still faces such as the stereotypes of Asian women, model minority, bamboo ceiling, and the generational loss of culture. A poem that not only expresses worries but also hopes to bring more attention to these issues.
Director Biography: JJ Querubin, a freelance sound designer who studied sound design for the past 4 years, and throughout her time has been working on student films and animations. JJ looks forward to working and creating more projects around subjects that touch on the adversities of the Asian community.
