Billi struggles with her traditional Chinese family and their decision to orchestrate the elaborate charade. Written and directed by Lulu Wang. (PG, 98 mins)
“Awkwafina has gone from rapper to comedic powerhouse, and now, most powerfully, to indie darling in ‘The Farewell.’ It’s one of the year’s sweetest films.” – Johnny Oleksinki, New York Post
“A funny, emotionally intricate and deeply moving tale of severed connections and renewed family ties.” – Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
“The Farewell is so unexpectedly and deliciously funny that watching it feels like a tonic — an immersion in love and art.” – Moira Macdonald, The Seattle Times
