A young woman falls in love with a waitress in a greasy-yet-nostalgic Hong Kong-style cafe, but a language gap divides the two - or is there something more?


Director - Alayna Y



Alayna is a digital artist and animator who specializes in making soup. That is, she throws (the figurative concept of) people, places, and things that make up the world around her into a simmering pot of creations. Whether it be a flavor everyone knows, or a soup only she could enjoy, Alayna will always make the soup she wants. As a not-quite-Vancouver based artist, much of Alayna's work takes place on traditional Katzie First Nation land.
