NEW YORK, NY, April 18, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Emerging writer/ director/actor Vandal Truong teams up with Academy Award-winning cinematographer Soopum Sohn for this powerful piece of cinema. "White Rabbit" is a gripping short film about an estranged brother and sister who reunite at their father's funeral to confront their complex, abusive past. A portrait of an Asian American family--bold, heartfelt and devoid of stereotypical characters.
"White Rabbit is a refreshingly brave piece of work. It is sensitively written and acted. It shines some light on a difficult subject matter in any culture, but particularly so within the Asian-American communities."-- Dustin Tri Nguyen, actor/ director (Oliver Stone's "Heaven & Earth", "21 Jumpstreet")
Maicau Films, based in New York, is a cutting edge production company that fosters provocative, original material for television and film. The original play "White Rabbit" premiered in 2008 at the Barrow Group Theatre in New York City as a workshop short play. Filmmaker Truong formed the film company to create an artistic environment that embraces the multicultural world in which we are all a part.
Asian American cinema is represented at the Hollywood East Film Festival by Vandal Truong's "White Rabbit".
