Legacy is an independent short film about a Chinese-American restaurant owner who finds a young Black man sleeping in his doorway and quietly gives him everything — his kitchen, his recipes, his life's work. It is a film about chosen family, intergenerational inheritance, and what it means to pass something down across every line we draw around belonging. Written, directed by, and starring Simon Shih, Legacy is currently in pre-production and targeting the 2026–2027 festival circuit.
