Producer: Ethan Lo\n\nWhat\u2019s the point of all of this? It\u2019s a question we've all asked ourselves. For child-refugees who\u2019ve come to America (and their descendants), attempting to answer this question is inevitably tied with wondering why fate, God, or whatever higher power they believe in has given them opportunities that those who came before them did not have.If you\u2019ve ever asked yourself what it is that you need to be doing in life, this story is for you. You don\u2019t have to come from a refugee background to relate. It\u2019s simply the story of a young man who\u2019s beginning to seriously question his lot in life, intertwining it with his family background, and coming to terms with the nature of it all. By exploring the three lives of a now-reintegrated middle-aged man who was sentenced to prison at 15, a college student who once couldn\u2019t dream, and a high school student balancing what she owes to her mother and to herself; Ethan hopes to answer one question: what am I here for, if anything?\n\nFeatured voices: Ethan Lo, Choy, Paw, Neesha\n\nMusic:\nOpening Credits, Johnny Ripper\nRain, Aaron Ximm\nNight Caves, Lee Rosevere\nOminous Beat, Setuniman freesound.org/people/Setuniman/\nHarmonious Ending, Setuniman freesound.org/people/Setuniman/
