The asian guy singing and talking in the southern accent is very well spoken.

I just found your channel. I think you guys are great. The few clips I watched were very simple in nature but direct, to the point, artistic and definately pulled emotions from me in a way that only good film could.

I have a particular love for the Chinatown neighborhood and its residents. Whenever I need to get away I just go there and it is like I have been transported to another country. Vivid, full of life and great people.

Keep up the good work.

At the time of 9/11, I lived in NYC and I was only in 1st grade. I don't really remember what happened. We came home from school, and everyone was watching the news. I watched the plane crash into the towers. Everyone was so shocked. I although, did not understand how tragic the events were. I didn't not understand how close I was to it.

im glad that those people are being heard from because they do know what its like and some peoplee say that they haven't lost anything. and the people that say things like that are so wrong. Im really happy that you did a documentary on this.
