Episode Synopsis

This week is part 2 of our mini-series looking behind-the-scenes at the creation of "The Paper Trail" exhibit, featured at the Chinese Canadian Museum in Vancouver's Chinatown.
As a part of the exhibit for the in remembrance of the 100 year anniversary of the Chinese Exclusion Act, two documentary short films, "Remembering Chinese Bachelors" & "Stories of Repeal and Reunion" were produced to highlight the narratives of those who were affected.
In this episode, we sit down with Daniel Chen and Victoria So, two INSTRCC research assistants who worked on the films to the questions: What was the process of making films for the exhibit? And how did the exhibit spaces get designed?
