X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Three Asian American teenagers meet in the
  New York suburbs in the 1980s. Drawn together by their shared sense of al
 ienation from their conventionally domestic immigrant families\, each want
 s to live a meaningful life. They envision a future defined by freedom and
  creativity\, but on the brink of adulthood in New York City\, their fortu
 nes quickly diverge. Giselle Chin is a performance artist\, pushing the bo
 undaries of the form while socializing with the city's artistic and financ
 ial elite. Jackie Ong works at tech start-ups during the early dotcom era\
 , as the internet's egalitarian promise is tested against its rampant mone
 tization. Ellen Ng\, a community activist\, fights against gentrification 
 overwhelming the city's neighborhoods. Their chosen paths separate them\, 
 but their friendship sustains and challenges them across huge divides of c
 lass\, status\, and worldview. Decades later\, their sense of what is poss
 ible has changed\, mutating against the hardscrabble realities of work and
  love. Moving from the 1980s to the 2040s\, spanning multiple eras of a ch
 anging New York City\, Memory Piece explores the roles of art\, friendship
 \, and creativity in self-preservation\, chronicling three women as they s
 trive to find value in a radically different world than the one they were 
 promised. Ambitious\, visionary\, and intellectually playful\, Memory Piec
 e asks how we define a good life\, individually and collectively\, and und
 erstanding what we do about the direction our society is headed--where do 
 we go from here?</p>\n<p>Join via Zoom: <a href="https://us06web.zoom.us/j
