Sundace 2009 Film Selection – Children of Invention

Two young children living illegally in a model apartment outside Boston are left to fend for themselves when their hardworking mother disappears. Based on Tze Chun's own award-winning short film, “Windowbreaker,” which screened at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival, “Children of Invention” is a drama about the influence of an adult world on children, the immigrant mentality, and shortcuts to the American dream.
