San Diego Asian Film Festival 2008

Bring out the kids for the world premiere screening of one of Nick Jr.’s most popular shows - Ni Hao, Kai-Lan. Trick or treat, it’s Halloween! Kai-lan and her friends dress up to go trick or treating with YeYe (grandpa). Kai-lan is a dinosaur, Tolee’s a panda, Hoho’s the Monkey King, and Rintoo is his favorite – a dragon! But just when they set out to trick or treat, Rintoo sprains his ankle. YeYe helps him and tells him that he needs to stay in bed and rest. Rintoo realizes that means he can’t go trick or treating, and he starts to cry. It’s up to Kai-lan and the viewer to figure out how make things better for Rintoo. Kai-lan has a great idea – they can make Rintoo’s bed into a huge dragon costume, attach some wheels, and zoom around the backyard to go trick or treating, without Rintoo ever getting out of bed! Rintoo is thrilled, and everyone has an amazing Halloween.

Join us for a free book reading immediately following Ni-Hao, Kai-Lan at the Barnes & Noble bookstore upstairs from the theater at Hazard Center, starting at 11AM.
