In “The Princess of Nebraska”, Sasha (Ling Li) is a foreign exchange student who finds herself pregnant. She's the new generation of China, unmoored to traditions and history. As she says, “In America I learned a new phrase, 'moving on.' Tomorrow I can start a new page.” She travels from Nebraska to San Francisco to get an abortion, but in her exploration of the city in the next 24 hours she learns that turning a new page doesn't necessarily mean turning your back on the past. “The Princess of Nebraska” is adapted from a collection of short stories by award winning author Yiyun Li.
