As Jay Diaz’s debut feature Angeleno prepares to make its world premiere at the Los Angeles film festival Dances With Films on June 20, 2026, I took the opportunity to interview director Jay Diaz and my friend Kevin Huie, who produced the film together on a shoestring budget. Kevin is also a fellow member of both the Producers Guild of America and the Television Academy. Bringing an independent feature to its world premiere at a major film festival is no small accomplishment, making their achievement all the more impressive and worthy of celebration.

Kicking off AAPI Heritage Month in style, Quentin Lee’s Margin Films celebrates its 30th anniversary with Cinemasianamerica—a vibrant new book and a seven-day screening series lighting up the Laemmle Royal Theatre in Los Angeles. The series is also streaming on AAM.tv, bringing the celebration to audiences everywhere. On Friday, May 1, 2026, Cinemasianamerica opened with a 30th anniversary screening of Shopping for Fangs, the groundbreaking debut feature from Lee and Justin Lin. The night drew a feast of collaborators, who turned out in full force for both the screening and a lively after-party in West Los Angeles.
