All About Dad (82min / color film / director Mark Tran / USA 2009) courtesy of Cinequest

Overbearing dads? Sibling rivalries? These are Vietnamese variations on a series of themes, and they are likely to hit home no matter what culture one grew up in. With the directorial touch of a Wes Anderson with soul, small, quirky details pop to the foreground and take on unexpected significance: a tilting tree, an action figure and the occasional burst of magic.
