Description: Jimmy, a 40-year-old recent divorcee and all-around lovable loser, is spending his days mooching off his sister Aiko and brother-in-law Tak, while at night he shares a bunk bed with this precocious 10-year-old nephew. One day, Tak's gorgeous niece Ramona moves into the household and Jimmy falls head over heels. Much comedic mayhem ensues as Jimmy's romantic intentions go hilariously awry. With an all-star cast that includes Hiroshi Watanabe (Letters from Iwo Jima), Lynn Chen (Saving Face), James Kyson Lee (Heroes) and Japanese Academy Award winner Nae, this indie charmer will have you leaving the theatre with a smile on your face.

Presented in collaboration with the Austin Asian American Film Festival
