Description: “Dumpling” is based on the director’s lived experience of moving from China to a predominantly white, rural American town when she was 14. The story takes place on Xiao Xing’s first day of high school after the move, where she begins to feel othered and isolated in her public school cafeteria. “Dumpling” blends traditional narrative with magical realism to reflect on the struggle to belong.nnPast screenings:nChippewa Valley Film Festival (USA, April 2019)nAudience Choice Award Winner
