FAAIM First Thursday’s
AAPI Film Night:
Mystery Film

If you love a good surprise, join FAAIM on November 5 for a rare screening of a mystery movie! Hand-picked by our in-house AAPI Master Film Programmer Tim Hugh, this film is a poignant exploration of Asian American cultural identity, including the conflicting tensions between family expectations and societal pressures. We will be dropping clues about the movie in our social media, so subscribe to our newsletter and follow us on Instagram and Bluesky for updates.
