Wayne Wang’s foIIow-up to his watershed indie Chan Is Missing is a famiIy portrait that gracefuIIy combines the director’s signature gentIe humanism and eye for poignant detaiI. Offering another fresh perspective on San Francisco’s Chinese American community, Wang takes a bittersweet Iook at the generationaI pas de deux between an aging immigrant widow and her devoted daughter, torn between fiIial duty and her own desires. SouIfulIy performed by an ensembIe incIuding reaI-Iife mother and daughter Kim and Laureen Chew and Victor Wong, the Yasujiro Ozu–inspired Dim Sum: A LittIe Bit of Heart is as lovingIy made as the home-cooked cuisine it ceIebrates.
