CGiii Comment

A film that perfectly explains the importance of identity.

The(ir) Blurb...

Suki Terada Ports is not prone to whimsy. Born in 1934, in the Harlem neighborhood where she still lives, we join Suki as she takes the bus downtown to a lunch where a conversation of action, identity, and belonging emerges between three generations of AAPI activists and storytellers. Nothing comes easy in this city of New York. Suki is proof of this. And yet, the air is full of possibility, drive, and, yes, what can be changed.
