The A List: 15 Stories from Asian and Pacific Diasporas
SATURDAY, APRIL 18, 2026
7:00PM DOWNER THEATRE - NORTH CINEMA

APA, APIDA, AAPI, AANHPI. The acronyms are as unwieldy as the assortment of countries, territories, and lands whose people have been grouped under these letters. But what do they share, if anything at all? With artfully used archival footage and heartfelt original interviews, MFF2022 alum Eugene Yi deftly interrogates these questions across fifteen profiles of nationally recognized names and more homegrown heroes, ultimately finding common threads of humanity amidst vast difference.
