What begins as a meet-cute between an older white man and a younger Asian American one quickly becomes something much deeper—both in terms of the relationship and Pilapil’s thoughtful meditations on race, power, art, and what we give up to another person to be part of a couple. Sprinkled with quick wit and dazzling turns of phrase, the bottoming process is both entertaining and leaves you with a lot to think about. Would absolutely love to see this staged — highly recommended!
