Synopsis
Chaperone
Set in rural Hawai’i and featuring an entirely AANHPI cast, Chaperone follows Misha, an unambitious 29-year-old woman who finds a dangerous acceptance in a bright 18-year-old athlete who mistakes her for a fellow high school student.
The French Italian

Their friends are horrified, and regret is setting in. They start plotting their revenge— and before they know it, they’re staging an off-Broadway play…
