Meeting You, Meeting Me, an engrossing drama film about friendship by Korean-American director Lina Suh, will compete at the 20th LA Femme International Film Festival on Friday, October 25th at 6 PM at Regal Cinema LA Live. It will then enjoy a week-long awards run from November 15-21 at Laemmle Noho 7.
Meeting You, Meeting Me tells the story of two women from different walks of life who both desperately need a friend. When they cross paths by chance, they form an unlikely friendship.
Meeting You, Meeting Me is written and directed by Suh, produced by Sharon Sunjung Park, with executive producers Anna Park and Samuel Yeunju Ha, co-executive producers Junghwan Kim and Hyojung Shin, and associate producer Paul Ji Hoon Lee. The film stars Annika Foster (Deadly Girls Night Out), Sam Yim (Transformers: The Last Knight), and Patrick Luwis (Cobra Kai). Cinematography is by Heyjin Jun and Dawn Suhyun Shim, with music composed by Henry O.
“This film is a testament to so many friendships, old and new, that made this possible, from the writing of the script through production, all the way to sharing it in theaters now. It’s surreal and exciting when people say they see their own friendships reflected back at them in these characters,” says Suh.
Lina Suh grew up in Seoul, Korea; the American Midwest; and New York. She directed the short films SO FCKING HAPPY FOR YOU* and GOOD FACE, the latter developed as a TV series with Sony Pictures TV and HBO Max. Lina is in development to write and direct film and TV projects with an eye towards co-productions with Korea. She was the story editor on DR. BRAIN, Apple TV+’s first Korean language series. Meeting You, Meeting Me is Lina’s first feature film as a writer and director. She received a BFA from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts in Dramatic Writing and an MFA from USC’s School of Cinematic Arts in Film Production.
Meeting You, Meeting Me will screen on Friday, October 25th at 6 PM at Regal Cinema at LA Live, 1000 Olympic Blvd in Los Angeles.
