  • AFS Cinema 6259 Middle Fiskville Road Austin, TX, 78752 United States (map)

AUSTIN PREMIERE followed by Q&A with filmmakers in attendance

When a Korean American family relocates from California to a small town in Wyoming, they soon find the residents more threatening than the wildlife. In "A Great Divide," directed by Jean Shim, the Lee family—Dad, Mom, and their son Ben —struggle to fit in amidst a community resistant to change. As they confront unwelcoming neighbors and grapple with their outsider status, they must navigate the complexities of their new life in Wyoming. - Tony Nguyen, Feature Film Programmer
