Directors: Emiko Omori and Curtis Choy

Al is the link to the disappearing manong generation, the bachelor society that came from the Philippines in the 1920s and 30s as workers. We accompany Al in his wanderings in San Francisco's Chinatown and Manilatown while he tells the manong's tales of isolation, struggle, and merriment.

Eighteen years after Khmer Rouge, two Cambodian brothers, one strong enough to be able to now live with his traumatic memories (Rithy) and the other unable to function in life because of the trauma (Bunthon), each argue their very different ideas about how to deal with Bunthon's empty painful life. HOW WAR ENDS was an official selection of the Oceanside International Film Festival, NewFilmmakers L.A.
