‘Riceboy Sleeps’ sparks frenzy of activity for B.C. writer-director Anthony Shim
There’s been nothing tranquil about the B.C.-set immigrant drama “Riceboy Sleeps” since its buzz-laden debut at Toronto International Film Festival last year.
The staggered rollout across Canada includes Toronto, Montreal, Edmonton and Vancouver, with future release plans in Korea, Singapore and the United States. Shim says critical and industry acclaim have already ushered in new creative partnerships and projects, including an offer to direct an episode of the Showtime drama “The Chi.”
While he doesn’t specifically aspire to episodic work, Shim says he welcomes the experience since he may want to develop his own limited series or TV project one day. Shim says the hardest part of casting was finding quasi-bilingual actors who had the right mix of Korean and English language proficiency.
