Community Voices – AAPI Film Festival at Peninsula Center Library

Join the community for an afternoon of powerful storytelling at the Community Voices: AAPI Film Festival on Saturday, May 31, 2025, from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM at the Peninsula Center Library Community Room in Rolling Hills Estates.

This special event features a curated collection of short films directed by senior and amateur Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) filmmakers. Each film offers a unique perspective, capturing personal and cultural narratives that reflect the rich diversity within the AAPI experience.

What to Expect

• A lineup of short films that span themes of identity, family, resilience, and heritage
  
  

• A showcase of emerging and elder AAPI voices in film
  
  

• A post-screening Q&A session with the filmmakers
  
  

• A chance to engage in meaningful dialogue and support underrepresented storytellers
  
  

This is more than a film screening—it’s a celebration of creativity, cultural reflection, and community connection.

Presented in Partnership

This program is a collaboration between Palos Verdes Library District and VC Archives, through their Digital Histories program, which highlights the lived experiences of AAPI seniors through the lens of film and digital storytelling.

Events like this give us a deeper connection to our neighbors, our histories, and the power of shared stories. We love when libraries become spaces for culture and community to come alive—and this is why We Love South Bay Local.
