Chatham Square Library, NYPL
33 E Broadway, New York, New York 10002
Chatham Square Library, located in the heart of Chinatown, celebrates the diverse stories and experiences of those with Chinese heritage with our new Chinese in America Film Series.
Maya Yu Zhang will present her shorts M A R K E D and My Sister Swallowed the Zoo. My Sister Swallowed the Zoo investigates an ordinary phone call between a mother and daughter, taking the audience on an emotional journey. They speak frankly about the daughter’s life choices, which the mother opposes, as well as the mother’s newly adopted baby. The film explores hope and disappointment, adoption and replacement, freedom, and captivity.
There will be a Q&A afterwards from filmmakers and actors. The event is free but limited space.
