The PCRB Library Film Club

Wednesday, May 24th, 2023 at 7PM

The film chosen for the virtual session via Zoom is The Joy Luck Club (1993), directed by Wayne Wang.

In San Francisco, a group of aging Chinese women (Kieu Chinh, Tsai Chin, France Nuyen, Lisa Lu) meet regularly to trade familial stories while playing Mahjong. In a series of sixteen vignettes that spans generations and continents, this adaptation of Amy Tan's bestselling novel explores cultural conflict and the often-turbulent relationships between four first-generation Chinese-American women and their mothers.

Please watch the film on your own before the session. A limited number of copies will be available at the library starting May 1st. The film is also available for streaming on AMAZON PRIME and YOUTUBE.

PLEASE NOTE: The PCRB Library Film Club will not meet in June or July.
