| Summary |
Canadian filmmaker Jeanette Kong weaves together the strands of her Chinese-Jamaican identity as she recounts her father's immigration journey-from China to Jamaica-and then eventually to Toronto, Canada. Drawing on her dad's eloquent journal writing, and connecting with family around the globe, the filmmaker paints a deeply honest portrait of the Hakka migration experience. Why brave the hardships of immigration, not once, but twice in a single lifetime? Part personal memoir and part archival history, this is a story of courage, resilience and sacrifice: a daughter's loving tribute to her immigrant father and to her Hakka heritage. |
