CLOSING NIGHT: 16th Annual Asian American Film Series
Join us for closing night of our sixteenth-annual Asian American Film Series at the historic Alhecama Theatre for a screening of 'Starring Jerry as Himself.'
A family documents how their immigrant father Jerry, a recently divorced and retired Florida man, was recruited by the Chinese police to be an undercover agent. (2023, 75 min)
A special presentation (and Q&A) about recognizing and avoiding scams, and a reception, will follow this screening.
