So often I find that answering the call for a gig, brings more often than not a fascinating adventure and opportunity to experience something unique and memorable. One such job was location sound with filmmaker Maxwell Duryea on his short The Wok from Albuquerque to San Francisco Chinatown.
In this piece, Tane Chan, the owner of the Wok Shop in San Francisco Chinatown, shares how an act of kindness done by her parents in Albuquerque was paid forward to her many years later. This is the true story of how Tane was able to get her store because of an act of kindness performed many years earlier by her parents; the second Chinese family to arrive in Albuquerque.
