[NEohioPAL] URGENT: Short Film in search of Key HMU artist

[Jessie Ng]

The short film, Lunchbox, is in search of a Key HMU artist and an
additional HMU artist ASAP!

*Synopsis*

Lunchbox is a dramatic, three-part, coming-of-age short about regret,
healing, and honoring the people we love.  Using her deceased immigrant
mother’s recipe book, Taiwanese American Shirley makes zongzi, turnip cake,
and hand-pulled noodles. As she cooks, each dish evokes a childhood memory
in which she grows progressively older and more distant from her Taiwanese
culture and mother.  When Shirley’s assimilation efforts culminate in her
election to the Homecoming Court, a mistake by Shirley’s mother humiliates
her, eliciting cruel words Shirley can never take back.  Based on a true
story, this retelling examines the personal cost of fitting in as well as
the recovery from cultural and familial loss.
