| CAVEBIRDS (in post-production) is an essay documentary and Emily’s first feature project. The film follows her father, Hok-Wah (Howard) Gan, to his homeland of Malaysia as he and his brothers set up a bird's nest farming business. Situating us among Emily's extended Chinese Malaysian family, the film moves from big cities to tiny hamlets. Meanwhile, the birds, ever-present, act as a conduit between Emily and her family members, prompting conversations about family, home, and heritage.
