When I was thirteen years old, I shot eight hours of carefully scripted and dramatized home movies with my grandmother. Fourteen years later, I have re-contextualized and re-edited this archive into a series of short video pieces. Each video presents my grandmother within a varied context, from the Vietnam War, to immigration, to her portrayal as a mafia hit man. These videos are an examination of violence and revisionist American history, seen both through my eyes, and the eyes of my eighty year old grandmother.
