I’ve been collecting anecdotes from my lola, my mother and my titas since I was a child. Ones that particularly stand out include the girls’ trips to Indonesia and the Philippines in order to visit relatives and attempt to connect with their lineage. They were so excited to leave New Jersey and embark on what they envisioned as a grand homecoming, only to find that they felt so estranged from the places they expected to feel most at home. Jalan-Jalan is a multiplane narrative comprised of matrilineal memory, animated ephemera, wishful reinactment, and jetlag-induced astral TV projections.

The Magician’s Table is a short documentary on Brujita Skincare.
