In an attempt to "live colorfully," the strength of a couple's relationship is tested by a situation where it might be more important to get out rather than get off.
G O L D
A girl stuck inside a 1950s skin whitening soap commercial breaks free to express that she's brown and proud and that it's time to fully embrace her Filipino golden skin. GOLD was released in honor of the 2021 Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month and is about creating a conversation around #brownpride, AAPI LOVE, and embracing ones culture, skin color, and identity.
Two different sides. Two different stories. Sometimes, it takes 3 to start a family.
