​​Be one of the first to see one of this year’s most promising AAPI-directed and led indie films SNAKEHEAD at its San Francisco Bay Area premiere on Friday, October 29th at 7:30pm PST. Join Stand with Asians and our partners Asian Hustle Network, CATS, Modernist, NAAAP, New Breath Foundation, Silicon Valley Asian Pacific Film Festival, SWAA, UPC, and 1990 Institute at the Vogue Theater in San Francisco for our opening weekend screening and intimate conversation with the film’s writer and director, Evan Jackson Leong, and producer Brian Yang.

The movie screening and Q&A session with the film’s director and producer will be followed by a lively after party in downtown San Francisco at The Modernist (an exclusive private social club known for its distinctive cocktails and tapas-style molecular cuisine).

 Proceeds from this event are fully tax deductible under Asian Hustle Network Foundation and will go towards supporting future ‘buyout’ theater events for low-income AAPI youth, many of whom may not otherwise have a chance to view films by Asian American creators and/or featuring Asian American leading actors.

 

 Ticket prices are as follows:

 $30 – Movie and Q&A with writer/director, Evan Jackson Leong, and producer Brian Yang, and after party at the Modernist

— About the Film —

Sister Tse is brought to New York by a Snakehead, a human smuggler. Although she is indebted to the crime family responsible for her transport, her survival instincts help her gain favor with the matriarch, and she rises quickly in the ranks. Soon Tse must reconcile her success with her real reason for coming to America—to find the child that was taken from her. In the end, Sister Tse must draw on the strength she has found in transforming her victimhood into power.
