Abstract
Gregg Araki is an independent filmmaker who is best known for his low budget, independent cult films that contributed to the New Queer Cinema movement of the 1990s. As an Asian American filmmaker, Araki faces criticism due to his lack of overt Asian American representation. However, by inclusion of an Asian American star, his Teenage Apocalypse Trilogy features progressive representation of queer Asian American men, empowering them by allowing them to explore their sexuality freely without being held back by binary representation or stereotypes.
