Friends Friday Film Reel Talk: “The Farewell”

May 7, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Don’t miss this Friday Friends Film Reel Talk Discussion as we discuss the film, The Farewell found on the streaming service, Kanopy.

Watch the movie, The Farewell (2019), from the comfort of your own home, and then join us on Zoom to discuss this moving and touching movie.

About the movie: In this funny, heartfelt story, Billi’s (Awkwafina) family returns to China under the guise of a fake wedding to stealthily say goodbye to their beloved matriarch–the only person that doesn’t know she only has a few weeks to live. This movie was Golden Globe winner for Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture in a Musical or Comedy and an Official Selection at the Sundance Film Festival.

Joining us for this film discussion will be Pang-Mei Natasha Chang, a Chinese-American memoirist and essayist who writes about identity, relationships, and the intersection of cultures, generations and the sexes.
