JOY RIDE

Directed by Adele Lim

From the producers of NEIGHBORS and the co-screenwriter of CRAZY RICH ASIANS, JOY RIDE stars Ashley Park, Sherry Cola, Oscar-nominee Stephanie Hsu, and Sabrina Wu. The hilarious and unapologetically explicit story of identity and self-discovery centers on four unlikely friends who embark on a once-in-a-lifetime international adventure. When Audrey’s (Ashley Park) business trip to Asia goes sideways, she enlists the aid of Lolo (Sherry Cola), her irreverent, childhood best friend who also happens to be a hot mess; Kat (Stephanie Hsu), her college friend turned Chinese soap star; and Deadeye (Sabrina Wu), Lolo’s eccentric cousin. Their no-holds-barred, epic experience becomes a journey of bonding, friendship, belonging, and wild debauchery that reveals the universal truth of what it means to know and love who you are.

“Props to Lim for knowing when to have fun and knowing when to get serious. It’s a difficult balance to strike, but they do it effortlessly.”
