CHINESE RESTAURANTS: "Within four seas, all men are brothers."

Three Continents, based on the 13-part documentary series Chinese Restaurants, tells the story of the Chinese Diaspora through its most recognizable and enduring icon - the family-run Chinese restaurant.  Filmmaker Cheuk Kwan visits Madagascar, Norway and Canada, exploring the meaning of “home” in Chinese communities that have established themselves on three continents.

"Surprisingly the best was in Madagascar. The third-generation Chinese owner never set foot in Hong Kong or in China, she learned it with cookbooks, and the fresh seafood there was out of this world.”

Here's what festivals around the world have said about CHINESE RESTAURANTS: THREE CONTINENTS.

"A colorful travelogue of a global citizen."
     -Hong Kong International Film Festival

"A brilliant and incisive look at the intersection of Chinese immigration and local politics."
     -San Francisco International Asian American Film Festival

"A fascinating journey exploring relationships between culture, geography and Chinese restaurants, it will make your taste-buds sing!"
     -Vancouver International Film Festival

"The film seeks solutions to the problems inherent in multi-racial and multi-cultural societies."
     -Pusan International Film Festival
