Event Details

​It's our pleasure to invite you to a special screening of the new film DÌDI (弟弟) next Thursday, August 1st, in collaboration with Susan Chinsen, Director of the Boston Asian American Film Festival (BAAFF).


​This is the opening weekend for this film and Oscar-nominated filmmaker Sean Wang will join us for a Q&A following the screening, moderated by Susan and her teammate Nate Shu.


​About the film:


​Dìdi (弟弟) is written and directed by Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Sean Wang.


​The film is set in 2008 in the Bay Area, and is a funny, irreverent, and affecting ode to first-generation teenagers navigating the joy and chaos of adolescence as seen through the lens of a 13-year-old Taiwanese American boy, played by Izaac Wang (Good Boys, Disney's Raya and the Last Dragon). At its premiere in competition at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival it received critical and audience acclaim, winning both the U.S. Dramatic Audience Award and the U.S. Dramatic Special Jury Award for Best Ensemble Cast.
