We Are More The Same Then We Are Different
Being an International student myself, it's easy to relate to this carefully crafted documentary. America and China are two very different countries with vastly different cultures. The film looked closely on the students journey of growing up within this cultural clash and did a great job portraying the struggles of young adults. It is hard, for us, being separated from our parents, facing an entirely new country with complete confidence. The documentary attempts to grasp the deeper intentions of Interantional students by asking questions to its audiences. Questions like, "Why are they doing this?", or, "In which way are we different from each other?" are asked and answered through the lives of these two narrators in the course of three years. Hopefully, this documentary will serve as a pioneer on the understanding between these two cultures, and further, teaching us how to learn from our differences. We are always more the same then we are different.
