Grant Movie Club presents THE JOY LUCK CLUB (1993), based on Amy Tan's now-classic novel. In San Francisco, a group of elder Chinese women (Ki?u Chinh, Tsai Chin, France Nuyen, Lisa Lu) meet regularly to trade familial stories while playing Mahjong. Told across sixteen vignettes that span generations, their stories explore cultural conflict and the relationships between four first-generation Chinese-American women (Ming-Na Wen, Tamlyn Tomita, Lauren Tom, Rosalind Chao) and their mothers.
