Movie Night: The Grace Lee Project
Contact: gpwn@duke.edu
Sponsor: Graduate and Professional Women's Network (GPWN)
Where:
Duke Women's Center
126 Few Federation Building (on west quad, directly across the traffic circle form the Allen Building)
Why:
Sit back and relax with GPWN over dinner and the documentary film The Grace Lee Project. "When Korean American filmmaker Grace Lee was growing up in Missouri, she was the only Grace Lee she knew. Once she left the Midwest however, everyone she met seemed to know "another Grace Lee." But why did they assume that all Grace Lees were reserved, dutiful, piano-playing overachievers? The filmmaker plunges into a funny, highly unscientific investigation into all those Grace Lees who break the mold -- from a fiery social activist to a rebel who tried to burn down her high school. With wit and charm, THE GRACE LEE PROJECT puts a hilarious spin on the eternal question, "What's in a name?"" ( http://www.gracelee.net/ ).
