Tofu
16mm, 16 minutes, color, 2000.
Tofu explores the fragile yet affectionate relationship between a Chinese immigrant grandmother and her American-born grandson. Grandma's mahjong game with her friends is disrupted by a call from her daughter asking her to watch 7-year-old Jacob for the afternoon. The gap between the two seems to be bridged when they start to play a traditional Chinese game of "Tofu."
