NORTH AMERICAN PREMIERE
2010, CHINA, 105 Min
Narrative
Directed by Kenneth Bi
Cast: Michelle Wai, Seli Xian, Venus Wong, Una Lin
Girl$ is Kenneth Bi's (director of the acclaimed film The Drummer) much talked about film that tackles teenage prostitution in China. Girl$ has never screened in the U.S., and we are proud to be the North American Premiere of this a stylish, energetic, entertaining, and exploitative flick.
Girl$ follows four young women and their experiences in the world of "compensated dating", where the girls are paid to date and not necessarily have sex. Of course, sex is an inevitable byproduct of the business, and the girls are subject to the same dangers: diseases, perverted clients, and even a killer who's out there killing and dismembering the working girls. Nonetheless, the girls forge on to pay the bills and try to make a living.
