SUMMARY:Film Screenings: Mother's Heart and Thavary Meas Bong
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a double feature screening of two classic prewar films: Mother’s Heart and Thavary Meas Bong. Screening for the first time in Chicago\, these films are a celebration of early Cambodian filmmakers’ ingenuity\, craftsmanship\, and talents. These early filmmakers’ aim was to make films that Cambodian audiences would be proud to watch but never did they imagine anything beyond the regional screening. As with many Asian Americans\, especially Southeast Asian communities\, there are many stigmas attached to their parents’ generation of war and related trauma. These films highlight a positive cultural production of their own heritage.

SUMMARY:Film Screening: My Father Marianne

Mårten Klingberg\, 2020\, Sweden\, 110 min.\nNewly single\, twentysomething aspiring journalist Hanna leaves Stockholm to move back in with her parents in her small hometown.
