Who We Become follows Jenah, Monica, and Lauren, three young Filipino women in Texas as they navigate a pandemic while forging unexpected connections with their families. GLAAD Media Award-nominated filmmaker PJ Raval (Call Her Ganda) paints a portrait in a very trying and eye-opening time in world history.

Described as a “self-documented time capsule for turbulent times” Who We Become screened at the Los Angeles Asian Pacific International Film Festival as well as Austin Asian American Film Festival before it was acquired by Ava DuVernay’s production banner ARRAY Releasing

“ARRAY takes great pride in releasing this new work by a filmmaker who we have long admired,” said Tilane Jones, President of ARRAY in a statement to press. “PJ Raval’s chronicling of both impact and access in the midst of two major global events is a necessary and noteworthy reflection on issues that are of vital importance.”
