Coverage in The Boston Globe. Thanks for hosting us, Boston Asian American Film Festival! The fifth annual Boston Asian American Film Festival (BAAFF) closes Sunday afternoon at ArtsEmerson’s Bright Family Screening Room in the Paramount Center with a shorts program. Boston-based filmmaker Yvonne Ng will discuss her documentary “So Are You Chinese?” about the intersection of race and culture during court-ordered desegration in Boston. Also on hand will be directors Timothy Tau (“Keye Luke”) and Minhae Shim (“Color Theory”). Director Janet Gardner, co-producer Sopheap Theam, and subject Sayon Soeun will be present for the Boston premiere of “Lost Child,” which documents how a Khmer Rouge child soldier confronts his childhood experiences. The fest closes with Hong Kong-based director Adam Wong and the East Coast premiere of “The Way We Dance.” The film chronicles “a young girl born with the soul of hip-hop who joins a collegiate dance crew and discovers that dance and Tai Chi are more connected than it seems.” Go to baaff.org.
