Golden Gate Girls
Golden Gate Girls is a 2014 feature documentary focusing on the life and works of Esther Eng (1914-1970), once honored as the first woman director of Southern China.〔(Rachel. “Shine a Light on a Chinese-American Female Film Pioneer” in ''South Morning China Post'', March 31, 2013. )〕 She crossed boundaries of both gender and culture by making Cantonese language films for Chinese audiences during and after WWII. She was in fact the only woman directing feature length films in America after Dorothy Arzner’s retirement in 1943 and before Ida Lupino began directing in 1949.〔(S. Louisa. "Esther Eng." In Jane Gaines, Radha Vatsal, and Monica Dall’Asta, eds. Women Film Pioneers Project. Center for Digital Research and Scholarship. New York, NY: Columbia University Libraries, 2013. Web. August 15, 2014. )〕 After her film career, she pioneered in establishing fine dining Chinese Restaurants in New York City.〔(S. Louisa. “‘She Wears Slacks’: Pioneer Women Directors Esther Eng and Dorothy Arzner.” Chapter II in Winnie Fu and Earnest C. Chan eds. Transcending Space and Time: Early Cinematic Experience of Hong Kong, Book III, Re-discovering Pioneering Females in Early Chinese Cinema & Grandview’s Cross-border Productions. Hong Kong: Hong Kong Film Archive, 2014, 143. )〕 She left her mark in both the Chinese and English press enabling director S. Louisa Wei to recover some of her lost stories. Clips from her two extant films, stills from her eight other motion pictures, photos from her six albums, newsreels of San Francisco as she saw them, as well as hundreds of archival images are collected to present her life and work in the most stunning visuals.
To pay tribute to Esther Eng, this documentary borrows the title of Eng's 1941 picture ''Golden Gate Girl'' and the making of the film was also included in the documentary.
