Five@50 is a unique collection of five-minute shorts reflecting on contemporary LGBTQ2+ lives and identities.
When a vintage bassinet appears at filmmaker Tiffany Hsiung and long-time fiancée Victoria Mata’s home, it sets off a chain reaction of emotions. The Bassinet is a gentle and affecting story about Tiffany’s personal struggle with the intersection of her sexual orientation and cultural identity, and the cross-generational burden of having a baby in the context of rigid social constructs of marriage and family.
Directed by Tiffany Hsiung - 2019 | 6 min
