2024 James Beard award winning film, Great Wall, is a short documentary of a Chinese-American woman who comes from a line of restaurant owners 2 generations deep that immigrated to America from Eastern Asia in the early 1980s. Growing up scarred by the restaurant industry, the once successful chemical engineer couldn't help but discover her true calling, opening her very own dim sum restaurant. This documentary takes us on a journey of the conflict between family, self, and external expectations.
