Memory Palace

After college, Steven revisits the places that defined each era of his life: early adolescence in the suburbs, fresh independence in San Francisco, and his parents’ hometown in Shanghai. As he captures the emotions evoked by familiar spaces, Steven reconciles with the meaning of home in a long-distance, immigrant family.
