For Us, By Us fellow Thanh Tran was selected for the Sundance Institute | The Asian American Foundation Fellowship. Fellows receive a $20,000 grant and the Artist Accelerator Program’s year-round support: hands-on guidance and bespoke project support, access to script consultancies, invitations to professional development programming, and a stipend to attend the 2027 Sundance Film Festival with a curated schedule.
Thanh’s current project is Finding Má, a documentary about an Amerasian Vietnamese and Black family shattered by the foster care and prison systems who reunite to heal old wounds and rebuild their family, starting with finding their houseless mom.
