This silent film directed by Marion E. Wong in 1916 is the earliest known Chinese American feature film and one of the first American films directed by a woman. Accompanied by live piano, the film tells a poignant story of cultural conflict within a Chinese-American family as they navigate Westernization and traditional values. Long thought lost, only two reels of this groundbreaking film survived and were restored in 2005, earning a place in the National Film Registry for its historical and cultural significance. This is a rare opportunity to experience a significant piece of early Asian American filmmaking.
