The Popcorn List: New Wave

Mile-high hair. Synthesized music. Underground parties. Elizabeth Ai’s lively first feature delves into the rebellious Vietnamese new wave blending nostalgia with a deeply personal re-examination of her community's music scene, hidden and unexamined past.

ABOUT THE POPCORN LIST
The Popcorn List is an annual survey of acclaimed feature films recommended by film festival programmers across North America – not yet available in wide release. The Popcorn List: Pop-Up Series brings a selection of these movies to audiences across the country in 10 cinemas including SIFF. We’ve chosen two works from first-time female filmmakers from the 2025 list to bring to the SIFF Film Center this September - IF THAT MOCKINGBIRD DON'T SING on September 9 and NEW WAVE on September 23.
