Support my SFIAAFF friends!
The San Francisco Asian American Film Festival is on now. 2009 brings some personal weight to the proceedings.
I just saw Fruit Fly. My friends are in it! And it is awesome. It's like Christopher Guest meets John Cameron Mitchell on a much much smaller budget. I loved Colma: The Musical, and HP Mendoza really kicks it up a notch on this one. There is mad local pride for SF and it serves as anti-gentrification tract, personal introspection, and quirky meditation on art all wrapped up in a candy-colored package.
Go Anh-Thu, Jasmine, and Aster! Also, for anyone from the Chinese Culture Center, you will notice former employee Mike Curtis is a major player in this film. See it now.
My dear friend Nicky also won the SFIAAFF jury prize for best DIY music video for his song "Jonah." You can watch it below. For more of Nicky, a.k.a. Fiveng, check out his myspace page.
