Prey

Directed by Helen Lee
Canada, 1995 (fiction, 26 minutes, colour, English)
Also known as "Automatic"

Film Description:
"Prey is a story of pursuit where the gender tables are turned: the girl ends up with her man and the gun. The brilliant pairing of Sandra Oh and Adam Beach as Il Bae and Noel guarantees temperatures will rise. Il Bae's father's convenience store has been robbed again. Noel looks like a thug, but that only makes her more curious. Grandma's unconvinced and doesn't hesitate to say so in Korean. A truly fun film that ends with a bang."
