In making the feature film Bitterroot, filmmaker Vera Brunner-Sung and producers Kazua Melissa Vang and Yeej used an apprenticeship model to bring Hmong community into various aspects of production. Though Bitterroot was shot in Missoula, people from the Twin Cities Hmong community were featured both in front of and behind the camera. Curated by Vang and Yeej, this screening showcase features local Hmong artists, highlighting the different ways they are using film to tell their own stories.
