Celebrating Immigrant and Foreign-born Artists and Filmmakers

 

New American Perspectives (NAP) presented by the Vilcek Foundation shines a spotlight on immigrant and foreign-born artists, celebrating the powerful impact that diversity has on contemporary cinema and media in the United States.

 

The program centers the voices of immigrant artists through film screenings, filmmaker Q&As and masterclasses. Attend this moderated conversation with HIFF45’s NAP cohort — Amy Wang (b. China), Leon Le (b. Vietnam), Lloyd Lee Choi (b. Canada), and Nani Sahra Walker (b. Nepal). The filmmakers and artists will discuss their careers, and their experiences as cultural workers adding to the creative lexicon of the United States.
