“An inspired and resonant portrait of tenuous teen sensuality emerging from seamless suburban facades.” – David McIntosh, Toronto Festival of Festivals “‘My Niagara’ is definitely set in Toronto for people who know Toronto. But I wanted it to be read both ways, the character to be either Japanese Canadian or Japanese American. It’s also a matter of political self-definition, of what it means to be Asian American or Asian Canadian… It’s a matte of dissolving boundaries, about collapsing categories, as much as about self definition.” – Helen Lee, Fuse Magazine, Fall 1993
