Intro
On June 22 (Thur.), we are pleased to have Taiwanese director Hsuan Yu Pan, producer Nancy Wolfe, and featured artist Ludmila Christeseva join the screening of the two films My Mother’s Table and The Other Side of the Sea. They will share their filmmaking process and stories. The protagonists in these two films are from Syria and Ukraine, and the films describe their nostalgia for their hometowns and how they advocate anti-war and peace for their motherland. We would love to invite the public to join the discussion about compassion and empathy based on the content of the documentary films, how the filmmaker tells the story of refugees through the lens, and how refugees tell theirs.
