Those who can’t do, (sometimes) sleep their way to the top. VAFF proudly presents the Canadian premiere of “A Leading Man,” Steven J. Kung’s feature writing and directing debut, as our CLOSING PRESENTATION. After being fired for refusing to portray a racial stereotype in his dream TV gig, GQ fights to salvage his career in the only way he thinks possible. “A Leading Man” enlightens us on the systemic stereotypical and two-dimensional depictions of Asian North Americans in film and television that Kung has witnessed throughout his career. Although set in the LA film industry, parallels are easily drawn between Vancouver and elsewhere.
