Live (Theatre 13). The film was executive produced by BananaMana Films and shot in Okinawa and Singapore. Intertwining romance, food and the theme of homecoming, the film is an homage to Okinawa – in particular the rustic, village life and its traditional Ryukyu cuisine. Ryan (Jason Chan) is an ambitious Singaporean chef working in Tokyo. When his food critic girlfriend Yuki (Mari Yamamoto) suddenly disappears, it leaves him reeling. In an effort to find her, he sets off to her hometown in Okinawa searching for clues. While Yuki is nowhere in sight, he discovers flavors beyond his imagination at her father’s restaurant. With the help of Yuki’s childhood friend Nami (Rino Nakasone), Ryan decides he must convince Yuki’s father to teach him his secret recipes. At first incredibly reluctant, her father finally relents to teaching him. Though Ryan’s Tokyo-style cooking won’t fly in this kitchen. But when Yuki’s father suddenly falls ill, will Ryan have what it takes to take over the family business? And will he win back Yuki along the way?” (Synopsis by Anderson Le, LAAPFF) Co-Writers/Co-Directors Jason Chan and Christian Lee who star in the film along side Mari Yamamoto and Rino Nakasone will be in attendance.
