New substack!! Ep #3 The arc of New Wave is grand. It starts as a look at a musical subculture within the Vietnamese diaspora but it transforms into an epic personal journey. In my convo with director @elizabeth_ai we discuss how the film went from a music doc to a personal one, finding the resolve to make the transition from being a producer to director, and how the film also turned into a book. Lots of great insight on the ins and outs of making a dream project a reality! Don’t ever let them tell you no, kids. Director Elizabeth Ai: “I had this noble quest… I wanted to make a movie for my community, for my daughter, for future generations, but I never thought it was going to be something for me."
