DYNAMIC DUO

No, not Batman and Robin,
Lum and Lin!

This makes for an interesting
and inviting interview.

The premise of the documenary
is study in why so many Caucasian
men prefer to date and mate
with Asian women.
The fastest growing cross-cultural
social phenomenon.

Two dynamic creative and energetic people
offer a gracious and warm situation
in which to be interviewed for the film.
The set is stark, however, and
basically one highly lit chair in a
cavernous and otherwise dark sound stage
at the Media Arts building
at San Francisco State University.
