The Empathizer

Fri 3/28, 3:00 pm – 4:30 pm
Boise Centre East - Room 430B
A documentary following a stand-up comic who heads to the motherland to learn why young overseas-born Vietnamese immigrants are returning in waves to the same country their parents fled. Fifty years after the end of the Fall of Saigon, The Empathizer is a uniquely candid exploration of the effects of wartime trauma on a generation that wasn't around to experience it. Q&A to follow with director Fred Le and executive producer Chris Burton.
