Filmmaker Statement

Hi, my name is Thomas Kim and I'm the writer/director for SI, a short film starring Ki Hong Lee (Maze Runner Trilogy, Dave). Si is a personal story based on my friend (Si Bohrer) and I's experiences growing up in the white, colonial suburbs of Massachusetts. It's a simple but (hopefully) poignant story that I wish I had seen growing up... and realized that my experiences weren't weird or unique to me... but that these feelings of self-oppression were universal to any foreigner growing up in this country. Made in high school and with random crew, Si was sold to HBO/HBO Max for distribution back in 2020, hence its limited festival run. Our 2 year contract with them expired so now we're looking to put it up online for more viewership as we're currently in the middle of financing its feature adaptation currently called ISLE CHILD, EP'd by Sundance-winner Jim Cummings (Thunder Road, The Beta Test). Read more about the feature here! www.wefunder.com/islechild Thank you for your time. Thomas
