Go Back to China with Anna Akana - FULL MOVIE - Comedy, Drama, Asian American
Ойын-сауық
When spoiled rich girl Sasha Li blows through half of her trust fund, she is cut off by her father and forced to go back to China and work for the family toy business. What begins simply as a way to regain financial support soon develops into a life-altering journey of self-discovery, as she learns the business from the ground up and reconnects with her estranged family in the process.
Go Back to China is a hilarious, heartfelt, and compelling portrait of what happens when today’s Millennial culture clashes with the old-school, hard-working values that families around the world have continued to instill and pass down. It also offers an honest look at the human cost of things that are made in China.

When I saw this in my recommendations, I thought about how cringe it looked and it was probably going to stereotype the Asian community instead. This movie was really good! It made me think, cry, and appreciate my parents that much more.
Being 1st Generation Chinese-American with parents from China, I totally relate to this movie. This is better than the stereotyped movies portraying Chinese people from the past decades.

Only a woman could write something like this, you feel the touch of a sensitive woman. Very nice! Good teachings, above all about EGO, family, friendship, life, love. You can easily understand what is better to avoid to do. Life is not money, nor business, life is enjoying what you have, doing what you really want to do, being grateful, thanking for everything, even for tiny things, and helping those who have less than you. I enjoyed this movie a lot, thanks for uploading.

This made me cry because it hit so close to home. I'm from an Indian family so not everything relates but the discussion that Carol had with her dad about taking responsibility and being a daughter before being his employee/investment hit too close to home. I wish my parents would have at least told me what I'm signing up for and give me the option to leave and support myself if I choose. Most Asian parents don't give their children this choice and expect the world out of their kids. It's simply too much pressure sometimes.

Being Asian and a Filipino at that super can relate. We don't mind a boss who screams and taunt but never backs it up, those are the kind of bosses that you just need to understand. ... There is this saying that states ... You don't have to understand but rather just be understanding, that's the secret to a Filipino's patience. "Kung nakakaintindi ka, intindihin mo na lang." There are a lot of old timers that think their time consumed through work is their sacrifice for the betterment of their family, yet forget to give a single second for their family. ... ... so sad.

Childcare, homecare that's one of my dreams for Filipinos who are working too hard. Once upon a time leaving my daughter while I'm working was one of my nightmares. Now she's 22 yr. old and she's a great daughter. Also I saw many ppl who can work but can never leave their old parents.

I've learnt so much, Sasha learns so much, she knows when to forgive and give. She is honest and i think i love that character
This was like a youtube special with Anna Akana headlining a movie and Pomplamoose singing the end credits, so very cool! So my parents came from mainland China and their early teens were spent dodging the Japanese during WWII and they came out unscathed and came to the U.S. (fun fact my Dad was in the army stationed in Germany the same time Elvis was there and although he never met him, he saw the impact he had even in a foreign country). My dad worked hard in my youth and I never saw him that much even though we were in the same house. I didn't resent it until later in my adult life and I never appreciated his sacrifice until later in my adult life. He never cheated on my mom, never gambled, never drank and had his three sons financially setup for college. I really appreciated the nuance of the movie setting up the father as a flawed character at odds with his children. The parental sacrifice and their understanding if their children want to follow a different path is so relevant. Thanks Dad, you're the best!
This is going to be my favorite movie forever

I Loooveee this movie. I enjoyed this movie story so realistic and based from Chinese norms for centuries. After I watch I felt I received a seminar about business mgmt. on a family enterprise. On top of it all, a new perspective to establish nicer relationship of siblings from multiple wives. That father could have intentionally treated them all equally tough, drove them to challenge him in unison and let each siblings DNA do the rest. I think a parent on a late stage of life has a lot to worry if anyone of his children is a stranger or not in harmony/disarray, even worst seeing them in chaos over inheritances.
This movie made me cry lots,I haven’t back to China for years already

I came across this movie while scrolling on KZread. I love this movie. I love the character of Sasha Ting, the character of the father is rather harsh or abusive but then all of a sudden, towards the end, the father lightens up to have a soft heart 😂. I want to explore more of Emily Ting's movies.

Very good story. Made me look at China in a much finer way, I enjoyed 'living' the story of this girl from the western side. I enjoyed this film. Congratulations.
AS A FATHER, I REALLY ENJOYED THIS MOVIE, and as a father I do understand that we DAD'S do work hard for our children, but I also did sacrifice to be at every event possible that my children were involved in, and owning a business makes it even harder at times, but I knew beforehand, that to be a good father, you have to be there for your children physically, as their birthdays when young nean something to them, and let us say at 10 years old only happens once in their lifetime, as well as all the other birthdays.
The story is so nice and the characters are very good in acting even my kababayan's😍from the Philippines..
What a wonderful movie... A few details that my OCD forces me to mention... Toys are made in Shantou, not the nearby factory towns of ShenZhen, though the language is Cantonese at both places. Secondly for design inspiration one hops to Japan or Korea, not HongKong. Loved the work nonetheless... p.s. my consultancy services are available for the next project or any kind of sourcing needs or commercial contract placement/enforcement from Mainland China😊😊 P.P.s. Anna is such a cutie, I love her 😊

First time I can totally relate to any film. I have restaurant and I worked there in new Zealand . Sometimes my father treat me as an employee not as his daughter 😢. I feels so dispointed and sad. But I can spend as much money. So everything is in balance I thing so.
" I am proud of you. " -- That's all that children want to hear from their parents.
i lived and worked in Shenzhen 2008-2012 and Shanghai 2017-18 and agree this feels fairly authentic. My kids were invited to be playmates with a rich Chinese business owner's kids and he had the whole mistress thing going just like this dad. Gregarious but probably a big jerk too. Sad the culture created such a reality. Makes me miss China, but I fear it's losing a lot of the good from the time I was there. Also sad. I came across this movie right after watching the one about Hong Kong. Both great simple films.

Still so sad though and truly hope this could change for good
I love that there are Filipinos on the cast
Loved it. I usually watch historical Chinese dramas or rom-coms. But this one was really good. Highly recommend
I adored this movie, Sasha has really an amazing heart ! For sure she’ll become an excellent professional.
So nice Maria was Filipina and the 2 toy designers were Filipino. Love
WHAT A LOVELY MOVIE!! Great direction, acting & cast selection. Plus it gave us a glimpse of China & a lovely toy factory, too!! I am of the opinion that the Chinese are incredibly hard working people & we could all learn a thing or two about SELF control & discipline from them!! Yesss, I DO prefer to live in a democracy & have the freedoms that I grew up with, but if communism & capitalism could meet half way & be more socialistic - I think that would be ideal!! As Mahatma Gandhi said: "The world has enough to for everyone's need not everyone's greed." So if the "filthy" rich would be willing to compromise a bit & make sure NO one in our world is "filthy" poor - Our world would be far more Heavenly, & hell would be beneath us ALL - Wishful thinking I know, but I would like to be born on a higher planet (I believe there is such a thing) where there's more goodness, equality & less suffering - ✌!!
I really love this movie.. I really like how shasha tackles all the tough situations ❤
This is such an awesome movie teaching how to teach young adult responsibility and not take things for granted,but especially treating the employees that work for companies respect and how hard it is to live on a low budget and unable to be with families. Mr.ng such a good actor and so much realism.
Anna, I have watched many of you're videos, and I have enjoyed them. But I never had a clue that you are this talented. On many levels, I loved this movie. Social responsibility, social awareness, generational differences, family dysfunction, healing, redemption, forgiveness and love, all tied together in a heartwarming story. Again I say, I loved it! ❤
