Episode 4: Karina Chiu

We recently sat down with our youngest guest to date, Karina Chiu, for a discussion of the films that have been most influential in her life.  We were surprised to find that Karina’s film choices were not at all what we expected.  Come along for our discussion about holding on to your identity, the lure of a black and white world, unhappy endings, and paper cranes.

So, get ready.  It’s gonna be fun.
