SUMMARY:RIVERSIDE—HOLLYWOOD CHINESE Screening

From the first Chinese American film produced in 1917\, to Ang Lee’s triumphant Brokeback Mountain nine decades later\, Hollywood Chinese brings together a fascinating portrait of actors\, directors\, writers\, and iconic images to show how the Chinese have been imagined in movies\, and how filmmakers have and continue to navigate an industry that was often ignorant about race\, but at times paradoxically receptive. \nHollywood Chinese is produced\, directed\, written and edited by Academy Award® nominee and triple Sundance award-winning filmmaker\, Arthur Dong (Licensed to Kill\, Coming Out Under Fire\, Forbidden City\, U.S.A.)\, and presents eleven of the industry’s most accomplished Chinese and Chinese American film artists who share personal accounts of working in film. Ang Lee\, Wayne Wang\, Joan Chen\, David Henry Hwang\, Justin Lin\, B.D. Wong\, Nancy Kwan\, Tsai Chin\, Lisa Lu\, James Hong\, and Amy Tan are among the storytellers who have wrestled with being the “other” in Hollywood. \nFree admission and Q&A with filmmaker Arthur Dong. \nWhere: UCR Arts\, 3824 & 3834 Main Street\, Riverside\, CA 92501\nWhen: 7 pm\, May 17\, 2024 \nFor details\, see: ucrarts.ucr.edu/films/hollywood-chinese/

SUMMARY:SAN DIEGO—Our Voice\, Our Power
DESCRIPTION:SAN DIEGO—Join Karen Organization for an evening dedicated to honoring the rich experiences and history of San Diego’s local refugee community. This special event will feature an exhibition showcasing their stories through art installations\, oral storytelling\, live performances\, and immersive visual displays. \nWhen: Friday\, June 21\, 2024\, 1–4 PM\nWhere: Mingei International Museum\, Balboa Park\, Plaza de Panama\, 1439 El Prado\, San Diego\, CA 92101 \nQuestions? Email Nao Kabashima\, Executive Director\, Karen Organization of San Diego\, nao@karensandiego.org \nMore about the event: This event serves a dual purpose: it is both an informational session for those with little to no knowledge of the ethnic groups in Burma and a nostalgic memory capsule for the Karen and other refugee communities from Burma. The cultural exhibition will narrate the story of the people from Burma through four distinct mediums. First\, a display of cultural artifacts will include clothes from various ethnic groups\, traditional weaving tools\, a water buffalo horn\, a drum\, and a harp – all items of symbolic importance to these communities. Additionally\, an art exhibit will feature pieces created by Karen youth. Each art piece visually represents the experiences recounted by elders and parents before and after the war. An incomplete timeline will visually depict the history of the Karen people\, with noticeable gaps due to the loss of historical records and knowledge because of the long-lasting civil war. This timeline will be supplemented with stories collected from community members through oral history projects. This visual will showcase our efforts to reclaim our voice and include our experiences in the historical narrative. The final component will be a play compiled from the stories of the local community. It highlights common themes such as resilience\, perseverance\, family and community bonds\, and the pursuit of hope and new beginnings. Each part of the exhibit aims to revive and preserve the pieces of our history that we hold dear and wish to pass on to future generations.

SUMMARY:SAN FRANCISCO—HELEN AND THE BEAR Screening at Framline48
DESCRIPTION:Photo: HELEN AND THE BEAR \nSAN FRANCISCO—The phrase “opposites attract” has rarely rung so true as in HELEN AND THE BEAR\, a cinéma vérité portrait of a vibrant woman and her most unusual marriage. Helen grew up feeling like a boy and as a young woman realized she was queer but went on to wed a man. And a rather unexpected man at that…Pete was an antiwar\, pro-environment Republican congressman in San Mateo\, 26 years Helen’s senior. Despite starting a long-term relationship with another woman\, Helen remained wed to the man she calls “Bear.” \n\nThis clear-eyed\, affectionate documentary finds the couple at a critical junction in their 40-year union — captured with striking honesty and intimacy by the director (and Helen’s niece) Alix Blair (FARMER/VETERAN). With Pete’s health growing more precarious at age 96\, Helen starts to look back at her own life as she contemplates what her world will look like without him. \n\nDIRECTED BY ALIX BLAIR\, 81 MINS \nWhere: Vogue Theatre\,  3290 Sacramento St\, San Francisco\, CA 94115\nWhen: June 23\, 2024 2:15 pm—3:53 pm \nFor details\, see: https://www.frameline.org/films/frameline48/helen-and-the-bear

DESCRIPTION:Pictured: Sally Gearhart. \nSAN FRANCISCO—A radical lesbian feminist whose trailblazing vision and ebullient personality were the spark for movements with far-reaching impacts\, the legacy of Sally Gearhart has also largely been erased from history. From the defeat of the Briggs Initiative to the founding of the first Women’s Studies program in the nation\, to groundbreaking writing on lesbian separatist communities\, Gearhart was a fierce-hearted San Francisco political preacher at the center of many iconic movements of the 1970s and 1980s. \n\nIn this heartfelt documentary following her journey from a 23-year-old professor at a Christian college to her final days surrounded by a diverse and dedicated community\, director Deborah Craig (A GREAT RIDE\, Frameline42) re-centers the charismatic Gearhart who ignited movements\, fought tirelessly for change\, and created lasting bonds. Deftly weaving archival footage with interviews spanning decades\, SALLY! illuminates the personal and political context that defines Gearhart’s legacy\, humorously and thoughtfully celebrating her while also confronting the controversies and limitations of lesbian separatism. SALLY! is a rare watch that honors its subject as both an icon and a beloved\, complex individual. \n\nWhere: Frameline Film Festival\, KQED\, 2601 Mariposa St.\, San Francisco\, CA\nWhen: June 26\, 2024 6 pm—7:34 pm \nFor details\, see: https://www.frameline.org/films/frameline48/sally
