The trailer for "The Farewell", written and directed by Lulu Wang, was released on May 7th. Awkwafina stars as a young woman who learns her grandmother is dying. The family hides the fact from its elderly matriarch. Described on the IMDb site as a comedy, it looks like a drama/coming-of-age story to me with a few comic moments. Filmmaker Lulu Wang won awards at this year's Atlanta and Palm Springs Film Festivals for "The Farewell". Look for it in theaters on July 12th. The Farewell Official Trailer
