Debbie Vu

A traumatized cheer captain races to stop a masked killer and the new tourist attraction aimed to exploit her tragedy from a year earlier.

A trans rocker girl getting by with petty credit card fraud is left to question who she wants to be when her latest target surprises her with an unforeseen proposition.

The line blurs between investigator and prey as a podcaster is forced to confront chilling consequences inside a dark abyss or risk losing everything.

Ma’s Kitchen is a semi-autobiographical short film about Debbie Vu, her mother, their language barrier, and straddling between two very different cultures, Vietnamese and American.

Two MMA fighters, both women of color, spar with one another while flashbacks haunt their every punch, every kick, every takedown. These moments illustrate their motivation behind why they took up the sport in the first place. One fighter deals with homophobia from her mother while the other suffers from her father’s constant psychological abuse. This is a story of redemption. Second chances reunite the fighters with their parents. No one is perfect and we cannot expect parents to do the right thing every time. They come with their own complexities from their unique perspectives. Family is permanent and it’s okay to have conflict, that is how we grow.
