This opening chapter defines the artistic persona of Evans Chan with reference to his personal history – born in China, brought up in Macau and Hong Kong, took a degree in the US, and now lives in New York. Chan is seen as a transnational global subject who possesses a hybrid sensibility towards both Eastern and Western cultures. The essays by the contributors Amy Lee, Tony Williams, Hector Rodriguez, Kenneth Chan, Gina Marchetti, Michael Ingham, and Stacilee Ford are then introduced.

Keywords:   Evans Chan, essay film, transcultural cinema
