From the producer of the Joy Luck Club comes Year of the Fish, a Cinderella story set in a Chinatown massage parlor. The film stars Ken Leung (Lost), Tsai Chin (The Joy Luck Club), Randall Duk Kim (The Matrix Reloaded) and introduces An Nguyen. Year of the Fish had it's world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival and was named Best Film at the Avignon Film Festival, Best Film at the Asheville Film Festival, and won several other international awards. It was released theatrically nationwide and was a nominee for a 2009 Independent Spirit Award. The film is rotoscoped - a digital process of tracing over live-action footage to create an animated look; in this case a flowing, watercolor effect that pops from the screen like a painting brought to life.
