Film Break Society Presents:  Saving Face (2004)
Thursday, June 11th at 8pm!

A layer-cake New York City romance from director Alice Wu about a mother and daughter caught in a web of love, modernity, tradition and culture. Wil (Michelle Krusiec) is a successful surgeon living on her own in New York. A lesbian, she struggles keeping her love-life hidden from her conservative Chinese family, especially her widowed mother, Hwei-Lan (Joan Chen) who is always pushing her daughter towards marriage. Hwei-Lan, though, has secrets of her own: she’s pregnant. Now, it falls to Wil to find a suitor for her mother/roommate, while she also pursues a new relationship of her own with the out-and-proud dancer Vivian (Lynn Chen). (R, 2004, 1h 36m)
