Fund This: Korean American cousins clash in 'Someone Else'

The debut feature from Nelson Kim is a "surreal drama" starring Aaron Yoo and Leonardo Nam.



The indie feature film Someone Else, written and directed by Nelson Kim, premieres next week at the Miami International Film Festival. Starring Aaron Yoo, Leonardo Nam and Jackie Chung, it's "a surreal drama about the clash of wills between two Korean American cousins and the woman who comes between them."

Following next week's premiere, they're hoping to get Someone Else on the festival circuit, give it a proper theatrical run, then release it on DVD and Video On Demand platforms. To accomplish all this, they're raising funds via Kickstarter to cover all the costs that go into getting an indie film to the masses.

Watch Nice Girls Crew Season Two!

Starring Lynn Chen, Michelle Krusiec and Sheetal Sheth as the best book club ever



Apologies to my homegirls in the Nice Girls Crew.

The second season of the comedy webseries, created/written by Christine Kwon, directed/written by Tanuj Chopra and starring Lynn Chen, Michelle Krusiec and Sheetal Sheth as three best frenemies in the best book club ever, dropped last week. I was actually on vacation, and wasn't able to give it proper blog love. So here it is.

In season two, available for viewing in its entirety on YouTube, the book club moves their shenanigans to Sophie's house where we meet Geraldine's mom (the legendary Tsai Chin) and Leena's hot new love interest. There are motivational speeches, literary re-enactments and deadly games of survival.
