About this movie
Compiled with footage of storefronts of beauty parlors and barber shops from Chinatown and the Lower East Side in New York City, the video takes the viewer into the hair culture of the Chinese American community. Accompanied by a soundtrack of “Heart Sutra” chanting from a Buddhist monastery, Hair Cuts explores the interior of human hearts through the architectural mapping of sites seen.
