Mile-high hair. Synthesized music. Underground parties.
The Vietnamese new wave scene of 1980s California was the catalyst to healing a generation of refugees in cultural limbo.
ABOUT THE DOCUMENTARY
Mile-high hair. Synthesized music. Underground parties. Elizabeth Ai was on a mission to excavate an untold story of rebellious punks in the chaotic world of 80s Vietnamese new wave until she rediscovered a hidden past.

"My favorite Tribeca music documentary was a homespun affair: Elizabeth Ai’s ‘New Wave,’ a soft scream of a film about ’80s Vietnamese diaspora culture and style."
