The annual Asian-American showcase is taking a specific focus this year - female directors. Almost two decades since its inception, documentaries, feature films and a short film in the series will highlight the experience of living Asian in America. Festival Director Tim Hughes and musician and actor Goh Nakamura join us with highlights from the showcase. You can see the films beginning Friday at the Gene Siskel Film Center.(Flickr/popturfdotcom)
