Description

Welcome to the South By Southwest (SXSW) Festival in Austin, Texas!

Closing Dynasty (Audience Award Winner for the Narrative Shorts Competition) follows 7 year old Queenie as she hustles and makes money off the streets of NYC on a school day. Director Lloyd Lee Choi shares why it was important for him to tell this story (and the twist at the end), how it was difficult for him to find a lead (and it was initially going to be a boy) until he met his young star Milinka Winata, and some fun behind the scenes stories about filming a young child in New York.
