Secret Screening
Followed by Q&A with filmmaker & cast
A smart and sassy comedy, featuring show-stopping performances by Pia Shah and Emily C. Chang, this project-in-development from Tanuj Chopra (director of Punching at the Sun, and shorts Pia and Clap, Clap) is a “high”-light of the festival. PhD candidate Cam is struggling to complete a favor for her fiance: deliver a large bag of weed to an unknown buyer. On one hand she feels a sense of loyalty to her partner but she doesn’t want to feel like a mule. She processes her decision in a park with her lifelong stoner best friend Jinky. They embark on a day they will not soon forget. This “secret” work-in-progress screening will be followed by a talkback with the talent. We’ll bring the director, the actresses, and the editor — you bring Mary Jane.
