About the film: “Mile-high hair. Synthesized music. Underground parties. Filmmaker Elizabeth Ai excavates the untold story of the young Vietnamese American rebels who found meaning in the vibrant world of the 1980s Southern California new wave scene—and along the way rediscovers a piece of her family’s hidden past.”

New Wave music became more than just a genre or a style for Vietnamese and Vietnamese Americans; it was a powerful statement of identity and a catalyst of a creative counterculture for Vietnamese youth.

The freedom found through New Wave music, and the culture built up around it (including the most fantastic fashion and hairdos you’ve ever seen), was a huge part of helping to heal deep seated wounds caused by the US/Vietnam war. This story (and more) is explored in “New Wave: Rebellion and Reinvention in the Vietnamese Diaspora” by Elizabeth Ai and the accompanying documentary, which is now available for streaming through the Criterion Channel!

If you have not had a chance to see the film, now is the perfect time to do so, and to pick up a copy of the book.

Did you know the actor giving this very specific FU / don’t-tell-me-what-to-do energy in NEW WAVE is Felix Fang, one half of the duo behind Double Joy, who’ll be feeding us at DEEP CUTS tomorrow?

That’s the spirit of the room we’re building. DJs who archive. Filmmakers who cook. Photographers who produce. Volunteers who are filmmakers, artists + cultural workers in their own right. People who are never just the one thing listed next to their name.

Come experience what happens when all that talent, music, food, film, archives + community share one space.

Just before the Mid-Autumn moon, come gather, set an intention + see what finds you.

NEW WAVE now on The Criterion Channel. Come celebrate with us.

Congratulations to New Wave for being added to the Criterion Collection! So excited for your success and hope many more people will have the opportunity to love it 😍
Funny thing…when I was in DC earlier this year, I happened to be staying at a hotel where there was a screening and once I heard the DJ…it reminded me of your film!
Cheering you on from SF 🌸
