Lawrence Gray's latest short poses the question of just how far you will go to keep fit, or at least remove all the rivals!
What happens when a bunch of beer swilling Englishmen discover Japanese Beer? They end up as Sumo Wrestlers, what else?
Juju bumped into me in a bar, as people do, and suggested that we should do something together and I said OK and a week later we had this written and shot.
It was great fun doing and improved my cantonese no end. The story is based upon the Hong Kong phenomena of the Gong Neui - Harbour Girl - and the Dihn Che Naahm - Train Boy. The Gong Neui is a sexless but sexy creature obsessed with designer labels and looking good, where the Dihn Che Naahm, modeled upon a pathologically shy Japanese cult film character is obsessed with computers and unable to function in the presence of girls.
Needless to say my take on this leads us to no great conclusion but does take us on a wild little ride through a side of Hong Kong that is barely touched upon normally.
