https://vimeo.com/ondemand/farflungstar“a Visually-stunning gem, a NORTH BY NORTHWEST for the digital age. This caper film doesn't let you rest for a second.” (Richard Uhlig)“I couldn't stop laughing at the situations and banter between the characters.” (William Butler)Diana Dunbar (Christa Engelbrecht) is a struggling actress living in Los Angeles who finds herself in the middle of a real-life spy movie when her younger brother Ian (Eric Tedder) shows up after being chased by a mysterious stranger who murdered his lover. The brother/sister duo must find a “dead drop” hidden somewhere in Hong Kong before they are killed themselves. An American backpacker (John Werskey) helps them seek refuge in the Asian metropolis, while black-market half-wit mercenaries Van & Eva (Garrett Swann & Shirley Wong) watch from the shadows. Also following them is a villainous official (Andrew Ng) who takes orders from dragoness Madame Iris (Cordelia Choy). With only a postcard of clues to lead them to the dead drop; the good guys are soon outnumbered, setting off a chain of events including a chase down the longest outdoor escalator in the world, a botched kidnapping, an incredible treasure, a budding romance, and a hair raising encounter with the Giant Buddha.WORLD PREMIERE @ Raindance Film Festival, London
