We're taking you back to CAAMFest (Center for Asian American Media) that took place just last month all around San Francisco where we covered the documentary on our favorite pool player of all time, Jeanette Lee VS.
Director Ursula Liang and Jeanette Lee (aka the Black Widow) sat down with us to share how this film came to be during a very life changing time for both of them. Ursula shares some insight for indie filmmakers on being commissioned to direct a film, and the importance of us being able to tell our own stories. Jeanette Lee opens up about being vulnerable on camera, and how she dealt with mansplaining at the pool table. Then Jeanette gives an update on her stage 4 cancer diagnosis, and shares some words of inspiration.
