Banana Bruises

Directed by Joyce Wong
Canada, 2006 (fiction, 12 minutes, colour, Cantonese / English)

Film Description:
"The story of Chloe Chan begins in elementary school, where she finds it difficult to fit in with the other kids. Being picked on daily by school bullies, Chloe develops her first crush on fellow introvert Matthew. She can identify with this shy, quiet white boy who is also bullied. They rarely talk, but as she grows, so does her fondness for him. One day her hopes of romance come true and she finally gets a chance to be with him. But in this satirical love story, things are not that simple and love is not as blind as we wish it to be."
