Kung-Fu

My name is Linx Selby, I am a Chinese-American-Canadian director, raised in Southwest USA and currently residing in Montreal. Being of mixed Asian descent, I'm interested in exploring Asian-Canadian culture and identity (my family is 4 generations deep) and ways in which Asian diaspora manifests in the American popular imagination. Based on Kung-Fu movies from the 1960s, this shoot, featuring two other mixed Asian models, highlights the appeal and the futility of America's attempts to commodify 'Asianness.'
