Food, which was the love of his life and nourished both his palate and his cultural roots, became the source of major discomfort. Allergies to shellfish and other rich, spicy foods provoked uncomfortable reactions. When traditional Western doctors could not help, he visits Asian doctors in San Francisco's Chinatown, and then goes on to Saigon, Taiwan and Hong Kong. As East meets West he meets physicians who practice traditional acupuncture and herbal therapies-- some palatable, some unpalatable. One practitioner of Chinese medicine uses a computer and modern technology to update his diagnosis. Kwan's odyssey turns into a life theatening ordeal when midway through the filming he suffers a debilitating stroke, unusual in a young man. His hospitalization and the process of recovery lend special drama to Kwan's preoccupation with food, medicine, culture and health. Ranging from playful to serious, Pins and Noodles uses a spectrum of storytelling styles, including documentary verite, animation, puppetry, historical photographs, and ancient medical charts. Once again the artistic collaboration of producers Kwan and Iger has generated a unique fusion of East and West. This film is part two of the Springroll Trilogy, along with Anatomy of a Springroll and Wok in Progress. 001356135 521__ $$aFor College; Adult audiences. 001356135 546__ $$aThis edition in English. 001356135 60010 $$aKwan, Paul. 001356135 650_0 $$aAlternative medicine. 001356135 650_0 $$aCooking, Chinese. 001356135 650_0 $$aFood allergy. 001356135 650_0 $$aMedicine, Chinese. 001356135 655_7 $$aDocumentary films.$$2lcgft 001356135 7001_ $$aIger, Arnold. 001356135 7761_ $$cOriginal$$w(OCoLC)747798471 001356135 85640 $$uhttp://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?FLON;1650472 001356135 901__ $$aASP1650472/flon$$bVaAlASP$$c25165$$tbiblio 001356135 905__ $$uadmin 001356135 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1356135$$pGLOBAL_SET 001356135 944__ $$a1785102 001356135 945__ $$aThe Whole World 001356135 980__ $$aSTREAMING 001356135 980__ $$aBIB 001356135 982__ $$aStreaming Video 001356135 983__ $$aOnline
