DESCRIPTION:\n	Queens Drive-In\, on the grounds of the New York Hall of Sci
 ence in Flushing Meadows Corona Park\, is located at 47-01 111th Street\, 
 Corona\, New York 11368 \n	\n	\n	Part of the Wednesday Night Movies series
  of free screenings presented by Queens Borough President Sharon Lee. \n	
 \n\n\n	Dir. Lulu Wang. 2019\, 100 mins. In English and Chinese (Mandarin) 
 with English subtitles. With Awkwafina\, Tzi Ma\, Diana Lin\, Zhao Shuzhen
 \, Lu Hond\, Jiang Yongbo. A true tale based on an actual lie\, Chinese-bo
 rn\, American-raised Billi (Awkwafina) reluctantly returns to her hometown
  of Changchun to find that\, although her family knows their beloved matri
 arch\, Nai Nai\, has mere weeks to live\, everyone has decided not to tell
  Nai Nai herself. To assure her happiness\, they gather under the joyful g
 uise of an expedited wedding\, uniting family members scattered abroad. As
  Billi navigates a minefield of family expectations and proprieties\, she 
 finds much to celebrate: a chance to rediscover the country she left as a 
 child\, her grandmother’s wondrous spirit\, and the ties that keep on bind
 ing even when much is left unspoken. Writer-director Lulu Wang’s semi-auto
 biographical film has an unhurried confidence that is rare in today’s cine
 ma\, reminiscent of a previous generation of independent filmmakers that f
 avored specificity and humanity over strained universality. The Farewellis
  poignant and hilarious\, and was an art house hit this year\, and yet it 
 succeeds without attempting to sell itself beyond the community and cultur
 e it explores. \n	\n\n\n	RSVP available soon. \n
