    Worth the watch for sure
    Randomly stumbled across this one and very happy I did . Beautiful and sad story but also thought provoking. Subtitled well and tells the story smoothly and did not drag on. Recommend it if your interested in the true upbringing in China pre 70s and why so many migrated to America , was it smart move?
