Canada is a multicultural country of immigrants. “New Comers” wants to record the living condition of Chinese immigrants in western-oriented society, and shows the collision and fusion of various cultures by the means of filming the representative lives of immigrants. Meanwhile, we want to provide a window for people from various cultural backgrounds to understand each other’s culture and thinking. If it is possible, we would like to enlarge our subject to immigrants from other countries, not just Chinese immigrants.
To every immigrant from different culture, facing and integrating into a completely new living environment is very difficult, so problems and contradictions are inevitable, and also what we are noticing and concerning. In the process of filming and producing, we want to record and show immigrants’ slice of real life with more flexible following shot and random question-and-answer style.
