Asian Dramas Appreciation Group

Recently Watched Edition: Past Lives

Are you looking for a place to gush about your favorite Asian shows, movies, or even songs? Or maybe you’re just curious and want to explore what Asian entertainment is like? Come join us!

Asian Dramas Appreciation Group: Recently Watched Edition is here!

This is where we pick an Asian TV show or movie to watch on our own time, then meet to discuss our impressions and thoughts on it together. Did you love it? Liked it? It was just okay. Or maybe it was not your cup of tea at all--and that's completely fine! All perspectives are welcomed and will be respected.

This time, we'll be discussing a romantic drama film called "Past Lives."

From Kanopy: Two childhood sweethearts, after decades apart, are reunited for one fateful week in New York as they confront notions of destiny, love, and the choices that make a life in this heartrending modern romance from filmmaker Celine Song.

• Watch the trailer HERE.
• This movie is available for streaming on Hoopla and Kanopy. Here are the links: Hoopla, Kanopy

• WHEN: Thursday, September 26th, 2024 from 4:00pm to 5:30pm
