Come enjoy an evening of heartwarming drama at the Athenaeum.

Four older women, all Chinese immigrants living in San Francisco, meet regularly to play mahjong, eat, and tell stories. Each of these women has an adult Chinese-American daughter. The film reveals the hidden pasts of the older women and their daughters, and how their lives are shaped by the clash of Chinese and American cultures as they strive to understand their family bonds and one another.

Bring something to eat or a snack. There will be unlimited popcorn.

Reservations are recommended, but not required. To save your seat or to get more information about the movie call 802-745-1392 or email awestfisher@stjathenaeum.org.

This event is free and ADA accessible.
