Kim Loo Sisters: Portraits In Four Part Harmony
This is a documentary about four sisters and daughters of a Chinese 'paper son' and Polish refugee, who overcame poverty and prejudice to become a popular American jazz vocal quartet in the 1930s and 40s. Their remarkable story both on stage and off makes an important contribution to America's multicultural heritage and a persuasive argument for the power of sisterhood. Official website
