Chinese American writer and filmmaker Kuang Lee from Oakland, California, broke from Chinese cultural norms and wrote a one-man musical comedy act that explores the complexities of his relationship with his late father.
He said that when dealing with his father’s death, Asian American expectations are to maintain composure, not express your feelings that much, and just get through it. However, since the passing of his father was a big moment for him, he wanted to be able to talk about it freely.
