Beacon Film Society Presents Starring Jerry As Himself

Starring Jerry as Himself
By Jonathan Hsu & Law Chen
Starring Jerry as Himself
Jerry Hsu came to the U.S. from Taiwan in the 70s and worked as an engineer for 40 years to support his family. One year after retiring, he received a phone call tying him to a $1.28 million money laundering scheme, inciting him to become a spy for the Chinese police to clear his name. True crime meets spy thriller in this genre-bending docufiction hybrid about an immigrant’s search for the American dream. Q&A with filmmakers to follow screening.
