More about the Chinatown Film Project

MOCA NY wants you to share your films, up to 7 minutes long, about your city’s Chinatown. They’re interested in large metropolitan Chinatowns as well as single strip mall Chinatowns! They want all formats, from camera phone video to Super 8mm film. This project is about re-seeing Chinatown through the eyes of filmmakers. And it’s about taking the art of filmmaking to Chinatowns the world over.
