my interview with @heidisaman on first gen anxiety, internet film communities, how she caught the eye of Ava DuVernay and why you need to stay up2date on the ever evolving industry. NAMOUR is available for streaming on Netflix! 

Day does her best on an indie budget to dismantle or challenge all the usually accepted myths about Asians being model minorities in her straightforward script. Definition Please is best when it focuses firmly on its characters’ highs and lows, their triumphs and struggles through moments of earnest reflection. I could have done without the more expected plotting and third act reversal, but the film manages to connect its dynamics together with a tenderly honest look at a flawed Indian-American family of adults all doing their best.
