Beyond Black and White is a personal exploration of the filmmaker’s
bicultural heritage (Caucasian and Asian/Bengali) in which she relates her
experiences to those of five other women from various biracial backgrounds. In
lively interviews and group discussions these women reveal how they have been
influenced by images of women in American media, how racism has affected them,
and how their families and environments have shaped their racial identities.
Their experiences are placed within the context of history, including
miscegenation laws and governmental racial classifications.
A Women Make Movies film. 26 minutes.
