From artist-run centres, theories of hyphenation, distribution networks and gay and lesbian cinema to F-words, new media technologies and sweet 'n' sour controversies, Reel Asian: Asian Canada on Screen presents a multi-faceted picture of diverse film- and video-makers. This collection of writings focuses on East and Southeast Asian Canadian independent film and video, and highlights the screen as a site for the reflection, projection, contestation and reimagination of identitites and communities.
