sky yang shares his accompaniment to breakthrough poetry short sunny
Sunny is Sky Yang’s first film, which he made in 2020. The film is about a Chinese boy who puts on a giant papier mache mask to hide himself in a world that tells him he should hate where he comes from. It was met with a huge response from the ESEA community and film festivals, and played at BFI Future Film Festival, CPIFF, South London Film Festival, and MilkTea Mixtape.
When Short Stuff asked Yang if he wanted to share some reflections on Sunny, he went above and beyond our expectations. Dear Google is his deeply emotive, moving and narrative response which he has created in written, video and audio formats.
We recommend watching Sunny first, and then reading or listening to Dear Google.
