故事梗概：
Vince is an Asian-American guy casually enjoying dinner alone at his favorite restaurant when a handsome Latin guy named Frankie decides to “hit” on him. Vince is a bit annoyed yet polite to Frankie and at times even makes fun of Frankie’s nervous attempts to express interest and get a date out of him. Vince makes it clear he isn’t interested in a date or dating, yet somehow Frankie manages to get him over to his apartment and even make Vince fall for his charm and good looks. After their night together, Vince ends up with the feeling of “love at first sight,” but begins to think Frankie is unresponsive or at least not having the same intense feelings. This leads Vince into a very lonely state of fantasy, sexual obsession, confusion, pain, and him dealing with his own low self-esteem and negative body image as an Asian gay man.

看起来怎么这么像我呢？


This is a film that has been in development in my head for years. There were a number of goals to make the finished product successful for me and that meant having my hand in all aspects of the film. I wrote the script with a specific goal of limiting the dialog as much as possible and to make both the acting and music the centerpiece of storytelling. The lead actor, Craig Avera, did an amazing job of following my direction and being able to drag the audience through the various emotions required of the story (my first goal). My second goal was to introduce an Asian male in a lead role of something other than what is stereotypical (monk, kung-fu fighter) and make him a real person with real feelings that you'd find in everyday life. My third goal was to show that gay Asian men are handsome and sexy. On the gay food chain (unfortunately there is one) Asian men are too often the "never, no thanks" option for gay men who know how to stereotype and discriminate as well if not better than the rest of society. Finally, I wanted to address these ideas in film by creating lots of questions with no answers. Telling people what to think is never more effective than letting people think for themselves.

说得好，其实上面提到的食物链的问题普遍存在，不过一直没有人明确的提出过，也一直被人们用各种各样的其他的借口所掩盖。

Good point! Especially the first one. Not only to the case of having a relationship, but also when it comes to have a life here in OZ, from every prospective. To my recently experience, I am trying to find a job in a very competitive market where everyone here knows how to sell themselves good.
