DÌDI (弟弟) - Official Trailer [HD] - Only In Theaters July 26

 

Set in 2008 Fremont, this Sundance audience award winner follows 13-year-old Taiwanese American Chris (Izaac Wang, Good Boys) in the fleeting summer before freshman year as he clumsily pursues his first crush, nurtures his passions for filming and skating, and experiments with the dawning intensity of online relationships via AIM chat and MySpace. At home, his college-bound sister, weary mother and acerbic grandma draw his ire as Chris stumbles through a series of hilarious coming-of-age situations.

Nuanced and tender, Sean Wang's semi-autobiographical feature debut offers a love letter to immigrant mothers and a layered exploration of learning to love oneself against the Darwinian backdrop of teenage cliques, cultural conformity and the maddening frustrations of growing up.
