MS. PURPLE

On the heels of the Sundance 2019 premiere, writer/director Justin Chon brings his visionary storytelling to the next level with this emotional love letter to Los Angeles – and the people who fight everyday to survive. In a breakout performance by actress Tiffany Chu, Kasie struggles to make a living and be the primary caretaker for her father.

Audiences were moved by Justin Chon’s GOOK (CAAMFest 2017) two years ago, for the film’s writing, raw storytelling, and fearlessness in shining a light on deeper issues. With MS. PURPLE, Chon solidifies the actor-auteur’s status as one of the most impactful voices for this new generation of Asian American storytellers.
