Confluence: A Meditation in Documentary Form (2021)

CONFLUENCE is a meditation on ancestry and identity through the diasporic lens of Asian American and queer experiences filmed during moonroom's 2019 PHASE, a showcase series celebrating Asian Pacific Islander and Desi American Heritage Month with underground events throughout Los Angeles and surrounding areas. This hypnotic mix of ethereal images and heartfelt, first-person testimonies explores the inner turmoil of being othered while persevering with creative expression, shattering both community and perceptual barriers.
