The Boston Asian American Film Festival marks its 10th anniversary this year, a milestone marked by what some are calling a new era for Asian-American stories on the big screen.
The 11-day event kicks off Thursday with the screening of the now-25-year-old film, "The Joy Luck Club," which many, like festival director Susan Chinsen, say helped pave the way for popular Asian-American films like "Crazy Rich Asians."
