Tom Tam takes us to the hub of 1980s Chinese American art movement- the Asian American Arts Centre in the Bowery neighborhood of New York City. Through interviews with Chinese American musicians, playwrights, poets, sculptors, painters, dancers, filmmakers, and critics about their heritage, their philosophy of art, and their craft, Tam attempts to answer the question: What is Asian American art? Interspersed with the interviews are the sights and sounds of New York's Chinatown.
