Hapa

After his 23andMe results reveal he is actually 51% White and 48% Asian, biracial filmmaker Shal Ngo goes back to his roots in both Vietnam and Minnesota to confront the meaning of his identity. Hapa combines documentary, stop-motion animation, family interviews, and stream-of-conscious voiceover to take a deep dive into who we are and what defines us.
