‘Bluffing’ tells the story of a father with a gambling problem, who loses a big sum playing Chinese poker with a triad gangster. As he fails to pay up, the gangsters kidnap his son. But little do they know how much this son is actually worth.
The film is a parody on gangster genre films and deals with Hong Kong’s superficial idea of status and worth. The storyline builds tension, the characters are archetypal ruffians, but as the film comes to its denouement the audience is left with a farcical resolution.

I met Tim on 23rd street near sixth avenue. He was sitting on the sidewalk with his back against a shuttered storefront. Before him perched a small hand-lettered cardboard sign that read:
Please Help
My dad passed away on Thursday
I am trying to get home for the
funeral and to be with my family
I only need $49 $39 more for a bus
Im not perfect but I wouldn’t lie about this
I told him I’d give him the money if I could use him for my art project. I told him I’d buy him a suit for his father’s funeral as well.
He agreed.

This is a preliminary promo piece for a film that’s being produced by Kind Green Planet, a nonprofit environmental and animal protection organization. VEGUCATED is a guerilla-style documentary that tells the true story of three people who agree to do one thing: change what they eat. For six weeks, these meat- and cheese-loving New Yorkers adopt a vegan diet and a whole new way of thinking about food. The physical impacts of the lifestyle are noticeable, but it’s the emotional changes that are truly profound. Watch this preliminary promo piece for a hint of what’s to come. (Note: the film used to be entitled “GLASS WALLS.”)
