Who Is Albert Woo? Defying the Stereotypes of Asian Men

Up-and-coming film director Hunt Hoe is seeking true-to-life role models in an effort to figure out what it really means to be an Asian man living in the West today: Hunt Hoe is searching for Albert Woo. Through interviews with Jackie Chan and other modern Asian men, this thought-provoking program examines the way identities are shaped by the media, history, and cultural legacy and considers to what extent reductive stereotypes, such as the Yellow Peril and the martial arts master, distort reality. (53 minutes)
