Emiko Jones

Directed by Hanako Footman

Emiko Jones makes her way to a premier after-party for a movie called ‘THE ATOMIC MAN’. Amongst the sea of white, Emiko spots a woman. The only other Asian in the room. They eventually get talking, even conversing in Japanese. Like all good conversations, it leads to a song - a song Emiko’s Japanese grandmother used to sing to her—one she hasn’t sung since she was a child. It’s through this meeting that Emiko remembers parts of herself that have been long forgotten and denied.
