CHI CHI, SHORT FILM

CHI CHI

SHORT FILM, 2019

CHI CHI IS A TWISTED COMING OF AGE JOURNEY EXPLORING THE RAMIFICATIONS OF LOSING CONTROL IN THE LUSH, VIBRANT, TROPICAL MIAMI ENVIRONMENT. INSPIRED BY A TRUE STORY, THE FILM TAKES PLACE IN 1984 AND FOLLOWS AVA, A YOUNG, NAÏVE STUDENT LIVING UNDER HER FATHER’S WATCHFUL EYE, AS SHE MEETS A SMOOTH TALKING, WEALTHY MAN AND GETS SWEPT INTO A WORLD OF EXCESS, LUXURY, DRUGS, AND PARTYING. ULTIMATELY, AVA HAS TO CHOOSE BETWEEN LOYALTY AND SELF-PRESERVATION.
