Film Screening of “Who Killed Vincent Chin?” & Q/A at the AADL
March 8 @ 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm
On a hot summer night in Detroit in 1982, Ronald Ebens, an autoworker, killed Vincent Chin, a young Chinese American draftsman with a baseball bat. Although he confessed, he never spent a day in jail. This gripping Academy Award-nominated film relentlessly probes the implications of the murder, for the families of those involved, and for the American justice system. Who Killed Vincent Chin? was recently restored by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and also added to the National Film Registry.
This screening features a Q&A with the film’s executive producer, Juanita Anderson, who will be in conversation with Chien-An Yuan in the AADL Downtown Lobby.
This event is in partnership with the Ann Arbor Film Festival as part of Laura Gibson’s exhibition “Dope Women in Media: Honoring Women in Film in Metro Detroit” at the A2AC.
