Margin Films Queer Asian-Canadian-American filmmaker Quentin Lee and his Los Angeles-based production banner Margin Films will mark three decades of independent production with Cinemasianamerica, a week-long theatrical retrospective at the Laemmle Royal running May 1–7.
The series will stream globally day-and-date on Asian American Movies (AAM.tv).
Seven titles spanning Lee’s career will screen across the run, opening May 1 with “Shopping for Fangs,” his 1997 debut feature co-directed with Justin Lin – who would go on to helm multiple entries in the “Fast & Furious” franchise. The film, which also marked actor John Cho‘s theatrical feature debut, premiered at the Toronto Film Festival in 1997 in the Perspective Canada section. Q&A sessions will accompany most screenings, including the opener.
