They’re All So Beautiful is a six-part web series that takes the conversation started in Seeking Asian Female, to the web forums. Each of the episodes, directed by Debbie Lum and co-produced by Maikiko James, begins with a question designed to stimulate discussion on yellow fever and stereotypes about Asian women.

• What is “yellow fever”? (April 1)
• Do you have to be white to have “yellow fever”? (April 8)
• What do Asian/American men think of “yellow fever”? (April 15)
• What about “white fever”-when Asian women seek out white Western men? (April 22)
• What about interracial marriage? (April 29)
• Seeking Asian Female (May 6) airs on PBS’s Independent Lens

Talking head commentary from experts and everyday Asian-Americans, as well as interviews with patrons of Asian fetish forums spell out the implications of race-based romantic preferences with honesty and humor. They’re All So Beautiful is provocative while politically agnostic. It promises to surprise viewers with its thoughtful look at modern love and relationships.
