Really enjoyed this read and how you highlighted the role of conversation in documentaries. I didn't expect New Wave to resonate with me so much, but it really held a mirror to my own difficult conversations with my mother. Definitely an important watch for all Vietnamese Americans.
Enjoyed reading this. Coincidentally, I'm thinking of writing something about the horrors of motherhood as depicted in certain novels and movies.
The nanny to motherhood pipeline! There are so many dimensions to horror too, from psychological to physical

Wonderful piece. Need to catch New Wave somehow. BTW, Didi was set in Fremont* (:
My SoCal ass showed itself
Same 😭 petition for the one theater in Sacramento to screen or I’m gonna throw a DiDi style tantrum
