NEW! #NOWNESSASIAPresents⁠ ⁠ In his short documentary ‘Soo (蘇)’, director Tyler Kang portrays a Cantonese-Australian family navigating the legacies of memory.

This intimate portrait of Soo explores generational bonds, and the quiet struggles of immigrant families who shaped Sydney before multiculturalism was ever recognised socially. ⁠ ⁠ “Colin is an ordinary man who took some risks in his life and showed other people from his village that a different kind of life was possible in Sydney [...]”⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in bio to watch the full film on NOWNESS ASIA⁠ 📽️⁠ ⁠ Writer & Director @tks.studio⁠ Producer @ellechara⁠ Director of Photography @gus.devylder⁠ Gaffer @kyanpfilm⁠ Editor @h1y4ma⁠ Sound recordist & Sound Design christinaboi⁠ Composer @julia_writes_music⁠ BTS @jascad⁠ Dialogue Editor @shawn.ltx⁠ 1st AD @paris.piccolo⁠ by @_tylerkang

Liam introduced his grandfather as “someone who could still vividly recall what Sydney’s Chinatown was like in the 1950s and 60s,” Kang explained. Soo’s sense of humour and “enthusiastic ambivalence” immediately made him a compelling subject for the documentary. ✒️⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in bio to watch the full film on NOWNESS ASIA⁠ 📽️⁠ ⁠ Writer & Director @tks.studio⁠ Producer @ellechara⁠ Director of Photography @gus.devylder⁠ Gaffer @kyanpfilm⁠ Editor @h1y4ma⁠ Sound recordist & Sound Design @christinaboi⁠ Composer @julia_writes_music⁠ BTS @jascad⁠ Dialogue Editor @shawn.ltx⁠ 1st AD @paris.piccolo⁠ by @_tylerkang
