Exclusion [videorecording] : beyond the silence / Producer, Craig Thompson ; Director, Keira Loughran.
Exclusion: Beyond the Silence is a poignant feature documentary that explores the enduring impact of Canada's 1923 Exclusion Act on generations of Chinese Canadian families. Through the personal stories of two granddaughters, Keira Loughran and Helen Lee, the film delves into the legacies of their grandmothers - trailblazers who fought for family reunification and laid the groundwork for Canada's policy of multiculturalism. Directed by Keira Loughran, the documentary follows the duo as they journey across Canada and to rural Guangdong Province in China, uncovering the resilience and sacrifices of their ancestors. The narrative sheds light on the inter-generational trauma caused by discriminatory immigration policies, while celebrating the cultural contributions of the Chinese Canadian community. This compelling untold story is a timely reflection on identity, heritage, and the enduring power of family.
