Our next guest is Sophia Wong Boccio. Born and raised in Hong Kong, Sophia’s deep roots in the film industry began with her parents’ careers as a prominent editor and actress. She launched her professional journey in the 1990s by creating the Sophia’s Choice movie series in Beijing and later curating film festivals in Sydney. After relocating to Chicago in 2000, she served in leadership roles for the Chicago International Film Festival and other major arts organizations. In 2015, she founded the non-profit Asian Pop-Up Cinema to continue her lifelong advocacy for Asian film and cultural exchange. Drawing on extensive international business experience, she now brings her expertise in cinema and trade to our upcoming talk about this year’s film showcase at Asian Pop-Up Cinema.
