In this program
GOOD HANDS GOOD FEET
Directed by Marshall Law
Coffee in a sling, cat in a cone, $30M for a feet job – what more does one need?
MONOGAMISH
Directed by Nardeep Khurmi
A gorgeously modern take on monogamy and relationships through the eyes of two rich South Asians, with a twist.
DON’T CRY WITH ME
Directed by Hiroaki Kubo
A lovely meditation on young infatuation. A student makes up a class one-on-one with a young teacher in a lesson on a poem about longing.
CLIQUE BAIT
Directed by Anna Mikami
The beeps of cell phones and clicks of taxi meters move us deeper into a tense epicenter where mean girls clash with luring creepers. A salacious slaying of rich ABC kids in Hong Kong and expat hierarchies.
NIGHT FAT
Directed by Dolan Chorng
Hilariously sad and gorgeously framed short about loneliness, queerness and Asian’ness wrapped into a one night interlude with a pizza delivery boy.
THE TREE
Directed by Chuhao Liu
Weird, dirty and sexy, a dystopic sexual circling amongst man, woman, and… dead tree. The three inhabit a Lynchian apartment with dirty walls, strange rituals, and orange peels as wildfires rage outside in this riveting short.
KOREATOWN
Directed by Grant Hyun
Sexy danger blankets an insular Koreatown host bar, where paid fantasy mixes with real longings, underground economies, and thirsty Korean women oozing loneliness and a taste for twisted power games.
