Chinese Restaurants: Latin Passions (2005)

Latin Passions, based on the 15-part documentary series Chinese Restaurants, tells the story of the Chinese Diaspora through its most recognizable and enduring icon - the family-run Chinese restaurant. Filmmaker Cheuk Kwan visits Peru, Brazil, and Argentina exploring Latin passions in Chinese communities that have established themselves in South America. Together, these community and personal histories illustrate the wider story of Chinese migration, settlement and integration.
