My next guest on the December 17 broadcast is Mr. Corey Tong of San Francisco and Honolulu.
Tong is a producer of a new documentary film Forever, Chinatown. His films have screened on PBS and other international broadcasters or theatrical venues in over 20 countries.
In addition to being a film and media producer, Corey Tong is a public relations and programming acquisitions consultant, guest lecturer and producers representative. He also has a professional background in architecture and design.
Tong is the former director of the San Francisco International Asian American Film Festival and former IFFCON director of Special Projects (co-production, development market).
Forever, Chinatown is the story of unknown, self taught 81-year-old artist Frank Wong. He has spent the past four decades re-creating is fading memories by building romantic, extraordinarily detailed miniature models of the San Francisco Chinatown rooms of his youth.
This film takes the journey of one individual and maps it to a rapidly changing urban neighborhood from the 1940s to the present day. A meditation on memory, community, and preserving one's own legacy, Wong’s three-dimensional miniature dioramas become rare portals into a historic neighborhood and a window to the artist’s filtered, romanticized memories and emotional struggles.
Forever, Chinatown is co-production of Good Medicine Picture Company and Independent Television Service (ITVS) presented in association with the Center for Asian American Media (CAAM), with funding provided by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB).
