san diego asian film festival



today i went to the
9th san diego asian film festival

a very enjoyable event



with samples of other sorts of art
a little painting exhibition





and live music



and a little lounge area



and even the bathrooms were a neat little surprise
paper butterflies flied on the walls
to match the theme of the festival



i watched a selection of short films
All in the Family
all themes of functional and rather disfunctional
families and relationships
they were OK, some better
some a little weird and well...
but it was interesting to listen
to the young directors talking about their films
after the presentation

I am now curious about a couple of full features films



the event was very nicely organized
a pretty, chilly, and sunny afternoon at Hazard Center
finally feels like October around here
