The 15-part documentary film series, Chinese Restaurants, explores the phenomenon of the Chinese restaurant across the globe. A researcher for the series, Maxwell will highlight an excerpt from the episode “Latin Passions,” which features both South American and Hong Kong-born Chinese restaurateurs and their families in Lima, Peru.
