Chinatown Shorts returns with its first international episode!

At the Heart of Barrio Chino: Tusán Perspectives in Lima, Peru 

Documentary, 16min, 2026

Directed by Lenora Lee & Moyra Silva Rodriguez

We explore Capón Barrio Chino, Lima’s vibrant Chinatown and one of South America’s oldest Chinatowns. Through dance and personal narratives of fourth-generation Chinese Peruvians, Tusáns, we honor the struggles and lasting cultural contributions of Chinese immigrants to Peruvian society, expanding perspectives on Chinese immigration in the Americas.
