A Letter to Chinatown
A documentary film project recorded over 10 years in Manchester, Oxford, London and Hong Kong. A 21st century coming of age story, we meet Daniel He a decade on from 'British Born Chinese' (2015), no longer living in his family takeaway, but preparing to graduate from Oxford University. Within a matter of weeks, life rapidly propels him from train to train, city to city and headlong into adulthood. 'A Letter To Chinatown' is a poetic, philosophical and emotional journey across time and place, in search of self and belonging.
A film by Elena Barabantseva and Alexandra D'Onofrio
in collaboration with Daniel He and Kenawa Films.
Edited by Kieran Hanson.
