Pushed to society’s margins, the characters and subjects inhabiting the films of this set confront the difficulties that their situations entail. Some resort to their profession’s violence (Jheff Wick) or through a friendship that makes them believe that the grass might truly be greener on the other side (Her Name is Like a Sigh). Others will come to accept their life’s station for the good of their children (Pipe Dreams). And for some, tragedy and a lack of agency over a situation results in personal devastation (Resurrection and 39). – Eric Nong
[Jheff Wick contains strong stylized violence throughout. 39 contains depictions of human suffocation throughout.]
The Vietnamese diaspora is marked by chains of violence. It leaves its mark on Fungi's family. Through poetry, photography, mixed martial arts and cooking, Fungi circles around reconciliation with her traumas.
