Asian American roots in the Pacific Northwest run deep, and dovetail with the region's rich and complex landscape. Though our contemporary zeitgeist is dark, harsh, uncertain, at times absurd—as many of the films in this program depict—we are also strengthened by our family and community ties, and rooted in our local history and heritage.


This program is only available to view in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington state.

An Afghan refugee boy hides with his mother inside a moving water tanker trying to cross the border to safety. Losing his mother in the process, Naaji forever tries to find a way to relive his last memory of her.
