Join us for a campus screening of the acclaimed Emmy-nominated documentary Made in Ethiopia (2024), co-directed by Xinyan Yu and Max Duncan. The film follows workers, managers, and a local farmer navigating a Chinese-run industrial park in Ethiopia, offering a rare, intimate look at globalization, labor, and development in East Africa.

Hot Chocolate, a short film directed by Emily Vargas and produced by FM student David Huang premiered last month at the 6th Annual Autumn’s Dawn Film Festival in NYC! Created for the summer 2026 section of FILMP 352 Film Production 2, the film stars Charles Huang in the lead role of Júko, a man whose mind wanders into a false world following the loss of his partner. This queer romantic tragedy takes viewers on a surreal journey while asking questions about the nature of grief and on whether one can truly feel complete without their other half.
