SUMMARY:Holding Heritage: Unspoken Stories
DESCRIPTION:Unspoken Stories showcases candid conversations between\nChinese-Vietnamese Boat People refugees and their families. \nAt its heart is the belief that for younger generations to carry culture forward\, they must first be inspired by the stories of their own families. \nBy encouraging honest and intentional dialogue across generations\, we invite viewers to see how embracing personal understandings of their roots can spark pride\, belonging\, and a deeper connection to both their identities and family histories. \nThe screening will be followed by a discussion with: \n\nHollie Ha\, Holding Heritage founder and Unspoken Stories creator\nSandy Ho\, Author of “No Way But Through: A Family Memoir”\nAndrew Ha\, interviewee from the Unspoken Stories project\n\nHollie Ha bridges generations by sharing candid conversations and untold stories of Chinese-Vietnamese Boat people refugees and their descendants. Through these meaningful exchanges\, the series explores the delicate interplay between heritage\, identity\, and family dynamics. \nWatch the trailer here!

SUMMARY:Film Screening - Singing Back the Buffalo
DESCRIPTION:Singing Back the Buffalo (99 min)  2024 \nFilmmaker: Tasha Hubbard\nDriven to the point of extinction in the 19th century\, the buffalo is proving more resilient than once feared. Tasha Hubbard’s rhapsodic documentary weaves personal reflection\, animated tales\, interviews with land stewards\, observational reportage and gorgeous nature footage. Ultimately\, we can see that the long-awaited return of this totem to the North American plains is closely related to the strength of the Indigenous peoples\, whose cooperation and coordination has been indispensable in a remarkable ecological revival. \nAdmission by Donation \nFMI: Janet 250 650 1885 \n  \nTrailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xshtMcU6fZE \n
