Taut & Evocative ‘Silent River’

Opens Theatrically Oct. 14^th in Los Angeles; Premieres on VOD, Oct. 25^th

 

Everything Fades Under the Sun ...

 

      Following a highly successful, award-winning festival run, the taut and evocative, sci-fi mystery/suspense film Silent River will enjoy a theatrical premiere in Los Angeles and VOD release.  Following a one-week theatrical run beginning Oct. 14 at Laemmle Glendale, Silent River will then be available on VOD starting Oct. 25, distributed by Gravitas Ventures.

 

     With a surreal filmmaking style inspired by the neo-noir work of David Lynch, Silent River is the third feature film release from writer/director Chris Chan Lee, who made his directorial debut in 1997 with the award-winning, critically acclaimed film, Yellow, a coming-of-age drama/comedy about a group of Asian-American teens in Los Angeles. Yellow featured the theatrical film acting debuts of John Cho (the Star Trek and Harold & Kumar film franchises) and Jason Tobin (Warrior, Jasmine, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift). Lee followed with producing the thriller, Jasmine, which won 100 awards in international film festival competitions.

Silent River

     Elliot (West Liang, FBI: Most Wanted, Atypical, Rebel) is desperate to reconcile with his estranged wife, Julie (Amy Tsang, Love Shot, Kung Fu). Determined, he drives across a barren desert road to reach her, hoping he can convince her to give him a second chance.

     Stopping at a roadside motel, he reaches out to a surprised Julie, who informs him she has moved on. At a loss for his next move, Elliot falls into a downward spiral and, when he encounters the sultry Greta (Tsang in a dual role)—an uncanny woman on the run from a mysterious past—strange and mysterious occurrences begin to haunt him.

 As the shadowy line between reality and dark fantasy becomes increasingly blurred, Elliot questions his own sanity and seeks the truth ... But will he regret finding the answer?
