CHINESE RESTAURANTS: ON THE ISLANDS
Dir. Cheuk Kwan (2003, Canada, Video, 72mins)
In this fascinating exploration of the Chinese diaspora in
the Carribean, director Cheuk Kwan uses the lens of the
family-run Chinese restaurant to examine the community halls and
cemeteries of Cuba's Barrio Chino, the legendary Soong's Great
Wall restaurant in Trinidad, and the Hakka-Creole-Indian mixings
of Mauritius' food, culture and people.
