This morning, I came across the interactive documentary Good Luck Soup. I want to spend some more time exploring it tomorrow. Here are some sources:
- Article on Storybench
- the Creator’s site

After spending just a minute skimming the story bench article, I’m excited to read more about how/why the creator, Matthew Hashiguchi, created the interactive documentary to complement his traditional, feature-length documentary. He writes:
While I continued to work on the documentary film about my family, I discovered many unique stories on the Japanese American and Japanese Canadian experience that didn’t fit within the single narrative of my family. So I created the interactive web experience for people like myself and family members to share their own stories and experiences as Japanese Americans or Japanese Canadians.
