💚 Viet Film Fest is excited to announce our Closing Night Screening event of “The Accidental Getaway Driver”🎉 Pre-screening festivities include wine tasting with BONDLE Wines from 3pm-7pm📜Synopsis: Set in OC’s Little Saigon, The Accidental Getaway Driver is a deliberate character study with neo-noir underpinnings. Late one evening, elderly taxi driver and former ARVN officer Long Mã (Hiệp Trần Nghĩa) accepts a ride request. Unbeknownst to him, the three men he is transporting – Tây (Dustin Nguyễn), Eddie (Phi Vũ), and Aden (Dali Benssalah) – have just escaped from jail. The tension between captors and captive threatens to boil over as they force Long Mã to transport them from one location to another.🤩 Fun Fact: The lead actor, Hiệp Trần Nghĩa, was scouted for the film when a producer saw him in the short film, “Malabar”, at Viet Film Fest! ☝️ For all information and ticket info, please click the link below!vff2023.eventive.org/films/64c838a1c460690238735002 ...
