Directed by Bertha Bay-Sa Pan in her feature debut, "Face" starts in the 1970's, set in Queens, NY. The film follows the life of Kim (Bai Ling), a timid and conflicted 20 year old struggling to sort out her relationship with her traditional mother (Kieu Chinh) when an unfortunate one-night stand with Daniel (Will Yun Lee) brings a surprise into her life. Forced to marry Daniel and trapped in a nightmare marriage with a newborn infant, Kim flees to Hong Kong leaving her daughter to be raised by her mother.

19 years later... Genie (Kristy Wu) is a 90's teen walking a tight rope between two separate worlds; that of her traditional grandmother and the contrasting, vibrant world of hip hop in New York City. When she falls in love with Michael (Treach), an African American DJ at a local club, Genie upsets her grandmother creating a wall between them. When her mother Kim resurfaces these three women are forced to resolve their betrayals and family history in order to save face.
