- grocery shoppers (open gender, Caucasian, all ages)
The film is a period piece set in the 1970s. This is a volunteer position, however, credit and snacks will be provided.
Esther & Sai is based on the true story of Sai Choo (a Chinese immigrant) and Esther Aneke (a Nigerian immigrant) who met in Vancouver at nursing school in 1976.
