From Hong Kong to Raufarhöfn: the Birthday Archives (2026)
Directed by Colleen Kwok
Documentary · 14m
When filmmaker Colleen travels to Raufarhöfn—a tiny, vibrant town on Iceland’s northern edge—she retraces the year her classmate Brian spent there 17 years earlier. Bound by a shared birthday and parallel journeys, their stories weave a meditation on diaspora, serendipity, and the quiet ways places shape us.
