AAIFF’12 alumni Debbie Lum x This American Life

1. “They’re All So Beautiful” producer and filmmaker Debbie Lum guests on This American Life this weekend to talk about yellow fever and the making of her award-winning documentary “SEEKING ASIAN FEMALE” (AAIFF’12) Check your local listings for “This American Life Episode 491: TRIBES–It’s the story of a white guy who only wants to date Asian women, who finally convinces one to marry him: then has to adjust to the reality of a real actual Asian woman in his life. The phrase ‘finding your tribe’ is a total cliche — but one that does apply to certain situations.” (http://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/491/tribes)
