THE A LIST: 15 STORIES FROM ASIAN AND PACIFIC DIASPORAS is a tapestry of personal vignettes from across the Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) communities in America. The film captures lived experiences from high-profile celebrities like Sandra Oh, to unsung heroes like Madelyn Yu, a retired nurse in New Jersey. These intimate first-person accounts invite viewers to question umbrella terms like “Asian American” and “AAPI,” and instead draw focus to the individuals and the communities themselves. HBO Documentary Films presents THE A LIST: 15 STORIES FROM ASIAN AND PACIFIC DIASPORAS, a Perfect Day Film. Directed by Eugene Yi; producers, Chad Thompson, Eugene Yi, and Jada Yuan; executive producer, Timothy Greenfield-Sanders. For HBO: executive producers, Nancy Abraham, Lisa Heller, and Tina Nguyen.
