The APABA-DC Women's Forum invites you to join our June APA Film & Dinner Social Event!

We will be viewing "The Grace Lee Project," one of the most recent and acclaimed movies by a Korean-American filmmaker. Following the film viewing, we will have dinner and a discussion of the film at a local restaurant.

"The Grace Lee Project" is being shown at the National Museum of Women in the Arts as part of the 2007 Korean Film Festival in DC. The film is Grace Lee's celebrated documentary about dozens of women with the same name. Variety calls "The Grace Lee Project," "Delightful! A funny but complex meditation on identity, ethnicity and cultural expectations," and New York Magazine says it's, "…Ridiculously entertaining…" These screenings are made possible by the Korea Foundation.
