But I Look Like a Lawyer shares stories of the discrimination, stereotyping and bias experienced by members of the Pan-Asian legal community. It aims to increase intercultural awareness and competency, and to surface the complexity of the historical, socio-economic and colonial aspects of these real lived experiences.
Everyone can enjoy this thought-provoking documentary, which has been widely screened in law firms and law schools all over Canada. Recently, it was selected for screening at the 26th Annual Vancouver Asian Film Festival.
