? The 2022-2023 culture film series Folklife, a joyful celebration of local folkways: writing, storytelling, visual arts, handcrafts, cuisine, and other forms of expression which make places and people distinctive and create bridges to connect them with other cultures around the world.
Mu and the Vanishing World
Dir. Jessica Leung and Paco B. Navarro (2020)
Mu Hparehas spent most of her life as a refugee in a tourist village in Thailand, where the body modifications traditional to her Kayan tribe make her a curiosity to outsiders. When the UN provides the opportunity for her to move to Kentucky, she takes it, and adapts to yet another exotic world.
