"Foreign Ghosts"
1998
Directed by Hunt Hoe

The interconnected stories of three immigrant women in Montreal comprise this film that The Montreal Gazette called "ambitious, artily constructed and acted with passion." A snowstorm rescue forces a Chinese woman to rethink her prejudices, a Greek woman gets close to a womanizer who hides his national identity, and a beautiful woman from the Dominican Republic runs from her dark past while working as a coffee house waitress.  131 minutes.
