Bridging Our Stories Movie Premier
When 50-year-old Filipina immigrant travels to the Philippines for the first time since infancy, she immerses in her native culture and learns traditional dances to bring back to her Filipino community in Alaska, hoping to spark cultural engagement and identity amongst youth increasingly disconnected from their heritage.
This is a story beyond just one culture; it is about the struggle of immigrants to maintain their identity in the United States, played out on the last frontier.

Residents from across the Anchorage-Tikahtnu Upper Cook Inlet area are coming together to reflect on who we’ve been, who we are now, and who we want to become. This is part of a growing effort to recognize the region as a National Heritage Area.
