“Hear, Eat, Home” – In Production

Hear, Eat, Home is a lyrical portrait of immigrant artists—fathers, sons, husbands—at a turning point in life, channeling inherited war trauma, displacement, and resilience into music, visuals, and shared meals. Syrian clarinetist Kinan Azmeh, artist Kevork Mourad, and Japanese American musician Kaoru Watanabe reflect on exile and belonging. Filmmaker Hsuan Yu Pan, a Taiwanese American woman, weaves in stories from her community, crafting a cross-cultural meditation shaped by memory, collaboration, and enduring resistance.
