If You Were Here
14m
Overview
IF YOU WERE HERE is a grandson’s depiction of Ama (grandma) Kuo’s love story with her husband, Akong, and her struggle to support 6 daughters in the United States while Akong worked to support them financially back in Taiwan. As Ama recalls pieces of the past, I visit their original home in Taiwan with old photos in hand to see how the pieces fit. IF YOU WERE HERE is an exploration of who my grandparents once were and what it means to love across seas, generations, and death.
