Ideas for Personal Project

I think perhaps one of the things that I feel I could do for this class, as a means to connect myself with my past in hopes to gain insight on the future, would be to make a documentary on the lives of 1st generation Asian American Immigrant, specifically hailing from the South Asian region, as that is more personal to my history. I feel that if I express the stories of South Asian Americans trying to reconcile with their cultures they experience at home with the dynamic of their lives outside, it would in turn reveal the struggle I go through to best blends these two worlds into my daily life. I feel that if this was executed through the use of the medium of film, it would best capture the essence of my story in terms of the popular history.
