"Soap Girl opens at Fairfax Laemmle Theater in LA in Dec, 6, 2002"


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


Epoch Entertainment & Leapfrog Productions is proud to announce the theatrical release of ¡°Soap Girl,¡± a controversial new film featuring ¡°a marvelous ensemble cast who have more energy, sex-appeal and charm than any group to strut and vamp across the camera in recent memory.¡± (Film Threat)

¡°Soap Girl¡± debuted at the Big Bear Lake Film Festival winning the Audience Award including Best Asian American Feature. It has already garnered a five-star review from Film Threat and generated a lot of controversy over the internet message boards.

¡°Soap Girl¡± tells the story of Maya, a young Asian girl who applies for work in a seedy Hollywood massage parlor. As her true motivations are slowly revealed, she falls in love with a virgin poet who steals her heart.

¡°Soap Girl¡± is from award-winning Korean American director Young Man Kang (¡°Cupid¡¯s Mistake¡±, ¡°First Testament,¡± ¡°Death Valley Diary¡±) and stars award-winning actor Luciano Saber (¡°Placebo Effect¡±, ¡°Scared¡±) Kerry Liu (¡°Blood Sisters,¡± ¡°Terrortoons¡±) and Gina Hiraizumi (¡°The Kingston High.¡±)

¡°Soap Girl¡± premieres December 3 at 7:30 p.m. and opens December 6 at the Fairfax Laemmle Theater on Beverly and Fairfax and runs through December 12.

I was at the premiere. The audience loved it. Try watching the film first. It isn't what you think.

BTW, it ISN'T about race. The guy she falls in love with just happens to be white -- and NO he doesn't rescue her from the life. This isn't Pretty Woman.

oh my god, what a horrible film! The audience didn't have the heart to lie to the mother who sold her house to finance this piece of junk that sets the asian actress a million years!

I was at the premiere and sat in the audience it was really good that sucks that people sneak into the premiere and bash the movie. Maybe the filmmakers of soap girl didnt have the heart of to tell them that they weren't invited.

Of course, film makers will only invite people who will lie to their face about the quality of the movie!

I'm sorry but someone has to be blunt and honest about this good-for-nothing-film that was demeaning to every asian woman!

How do you expect Hollywood to respect us when Soap Girl is a representation of our work?
