Two half Vietnamese documentary filmmakers, both named Adele, weave a shared narrative of mixed Asian (hapa) experiences through interviews with 7 other mixed race subjects. History, memory, and anecdotes on multiracial ethnicity are represented through archival images, super 8 film, verité, and interview. Parallel Adele has screened at 13 festivals, including the SF Int'l Asian American Film Festival, Wesleyan, NYU, and the Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC. It is distributed by Third World Newsreel.
