Description

Two ex-lovers reluctantly reunite to retrieve a lost container of invaluable goods in this electric ramble across Los Angeles, starring Monique Gabriela Curnen (Finishing the Game; The Dark Knight) and Sung Kang (Fast and Furious; The Motel). Back in her hometown to transport a cooler of life-saving human tissue, the perfectionist nurse May (Curnen) hopes to avoid any of her former friends. Such carefully laid plans are disrupted when she runs into her jilted ex-lover, the laid-back rocker JP (Kang), whose sudden appearance makes her lose her cool—and her cooler. With less than twenty-four hours to spare, the two team up to track down the container, encountering along the way a long-suffering transgender nightclub performer, a butch motorcycle mechanic and far more. Surprise cameos and familiar faces (including Michelle Krusiec and Mousa Kraish) make up this star-studded cast, led with aplomb by Curnen and Kang. Executive-produced by Justin Lin (Fast and Furious), Sunset Stories is the first feature film from the infamous internet collective You Offend Me You Offend My Family. In a twist on a fairytale ending, this story about “losing baggage” reminds us that we don’t always have to find love in order to find ourselves.
