How far would you go if the only girl you ever loved was murdered? The new film The “Girl From the Naked Eye” follows one man’s love to the ultimate extreme. When a high-class escort is found murdered, her protector Jake (Jason Yee) is crushed. He loved her and now he’ll stop at nothing to find her killer. Leaving a bloody trail in his wake, Jake risks everything to uncover the truth and take his vengeance. THE GIRL FROM THE NAKED EYE takes us through the underground world of sex and drugs where nothing is savory and everything is deadly. Here’s more about the film:

Jake (Jason Yee), an ex-gambler trying to pay off a debt, finds work as a driver for The Naked Eye. The Naked Eye is a private gentleman’s club that fronts for a prostitution ring. Jake tires of chauffeuring around call girls and roughing up deviants that don’t pay. Jake is stuck in this sad existence until he meets Sandy (Samantha Streets), an innocent misguided runaway with nowhere else to go. They form an unlikely bond and give each other the will to strive for a better life. When Sandy is found murdered, Jake searches all night to find out who killed the only person in the world who saw the good in him. Jake must survive the night while deciphering through lies, clues and his own true feelings about Sandy, The Girl from the Naked Eye.

“The Girl from the Naked Eye” is a stylized thriller/ action/ romance that pays homage specifically to Pulp murder novels & Noir films of the 1940s. Jason Yee is this generation’s Eastwood playing the cool but sympathetic Jake in a story that packs mystery, action and romance in every unexpected corner. Samantha Streets fills the screen with beauty and pathos as Sandy, his doomed love. Ron Yuan (Prison Break, CSI:NY, Entourage) provides comic relief as the foul mouthed pimp Simon whom both Jake and Sandy work for. Rounding out the cast are Dominique Swain (Alpha Dog, Lolita), Gary Stretch (The Heavy, Alexander), Sasha Grey (Girlfriend Experience, Entourage) and Wilson Heredia (Rent).

Executive Producer Henry Mu brings together diverse talents of acclaimed Director David Ren (Shanghai Kiss), acclaimed Action Director Ron Yuan (Sundance’s Black Dynamite) and sizzling newcomer Jason Yee as the lead protagonist in this stunning poetic blend of comic book and film noir.

Starting to make the film festival round is the film Salad Days. Here’s more about the quirky Asian American movie:

SALAD DAYS is a comedic love triangle told through three interconnected stories.

Caitlin (Emily Yoshida) is in the midst of a quarter-life crisis. She has created “Condor Hero,” a profile to communicate with a secret internet crush. Now she must decide whether or not they should meet in person.

A devastating car wreck forces Alex (Dave Horwitz) to reexamine his lifestyle and salvage his past relationships, including reconciling with a lost love: his ex-girlfriend Caitlin.

Anthony (Anthony Kuan), a misunderstood computer nerd, has the chance to meet the girl of his dreams – a geeky-cute video artist who he pines after on a social networking site. But finding an internet connection in order to contact her proves more difficult than he ever imagined.

SALAD DAYS offers a funny and unique perspective on the identities people create to protect themselves from the frustration and heartbreak of relationships in the real world.

Look for the film to play at a film festival near you including the 2011 San Diego Asian Film Festival.
