Kicking off the festival on April 18 is the dramedy "The Queen of My Dreams," a nostalgic exploration of familial relationships and personal discovery following the unexpected passing of a Pakistani Canadian woman's father. As she navigates the complexities of her grief, audiences are invited on a heartfelt journey replete with cultural nuances and universal themes. This year’s Sunday Spotlight, Through Tibetan Eyes: the Films of Pema Tseden, is a retrospective on the late Pema Tseden, whose pioneering work in Tibetan cinema continues to resonate with audiences worldwide. Through four of his seminal films, viewers will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in Tseden's visionary storytelling and profound exploration of Tibetan identity. In addition to the compelling film lineup, the festival will feature an Asian and Asian American Poetry Jam presented by San Diego Poetry Futures 2024 on April 20.
