Director Statement

I wrote this screenplay in my freshman year of college with the intention to try and portray the dynamic, witty, fierce, complex Asian females that I know in real life, characters that have been chronically underrepresented in the media. I never thought my little screenplay would see the light of day, but thanks to the help of many wonderful people, it became a reality! I learned so much from this entire process and am so immensely grateful to everyone who helped me along the way. I hope this film makes you smile!
