Narration by Brian Tran
After accusations of racism dogged the release of his masterpiece THE BIRTH OF A NATION, director D.W. Griffith made BROKEN BLOSSOMS to prove he was no bigot. And to make sure his film about the love between a Chinese man and white woman was “authentic,” he hired two Chinese American consultants. UNBROKEN BLOSSOMS is the story of those two men, the making of a classic movie and how even the best of intentions can go terribly awry.
