NYFF Review - 'The Inspection' Unearths Empathy in the Trenches of Bootcamp
The film exhibits a respect for the craft and an empathy for human tribulations that have historically been ignored.
Dao’s Wish
Dao came to live with her grandfather after her father went bankrupt, but her cousins who lived in the same house did not particularly like her, so she left for Bangkok, hopefully to find some work there. In Bangkok, she met a taxi driver whom she had helped once, they get along very well, he even found her a job in a women clothes designing store. When he asked her to marry him, she didn’t refuse but want him to wait until he has saved enough money to start a family. One day she was taken to a birthday party of a young millionaire, at the party she soon learned that her taxi driver actually is that young millionaire.

"Tears Of Knowing" Navigates Childhood Loss
Director and writer, Miles Marti, brilliantly created a film that captures the story of a kid that learns a new reality all within the walls of her classroom. Tears Of Knowing lightly steps into the devastation of loss through a childhood lens, and presents a perspective that is not often acknowledged. Though grief and loss are important aspects, the film also showcases excellent portrayals of trust, innocence, and naivety.
