PE in Chi-town sent me this info about a film I really wish I could see (thanks, PE!):

The Grace Lee Project

[excerpt from the website]:


THE GRACE LEE PROJECT is a humorous exploration of what it means to be an Asian woman in America. “Grace Lee” is the quintessential Asian American woman’s name, the Asian American “Jane Smith.” The name itself suggests a straddling of two worlds and hints at the history of exchange between Asian and Western cultures. By looking at the stories of women named Grace Lee, THE GRACE LEE PROJECT pursues the moving target of Asian American female identity, revealing a surprising complexity and diversity of experiences.
