Since California’s Gold Rush days, the Chinese-American movement has had many movers and shakers—but few as perplexing, controversial, and successful as little known Rose Pak. Exploring how the once marginalized community of San Francisco’s Chinatown has evolved to now wield considerable political power, RALLY presents an unvarnished look at one of the most confounding and unapologetic figures ever to stand up for justice and fair representation. The film offers up a dynamic portrait of securing a confident voice at the table with significant, lasting implications for other under-represented communities – both within, and far beyond, the city.
