About this submission
Loveboat Takeout is an experimental docu-fiction short about my family’s former business endeavor of opening a Chinese restaurant in Miami, FL. The restaurant's delivery driver does not belong to the city, the Miami locals only want them for their Americanized-Chinese cuisine. The immigrant population comprises half of the Miami population, most being Latin American. There's an overall consensus in the city that the labor of immigrants is essential, however, there's less recognition of the Asian population’s entrepreneurial endeavors. Overall, the film is a celebration of the Asian diaspora and opens up a dialogue about labor and diversity in Miami.
