About BA: Daniel Li (Lawrence Kao) and his daughter Collette (Kai Cech) are without options, money, or a home. In a desperate bid to secure his daughter's future, Daniel unwittingly accepts a chilling role - becoming Death itself. He undergoes a haunting physical transformation and learns the hard way that anything he touches will perish. Adapting to this cursed experience, Daniel shrouds every inch of his skin, lies about his profession, and sets rigid boundaries for Collette to keep her safe-all the while working to undo his fate. A curious and precocious Collette grows suspicious of her father's condition and whereabouts right when Macey, a Child Protection Services Officer, takes a keen interest in Collette's situation. Things come to a head when Collette discovers the truth about Daniel, causing their whole world to unravel.
Written and directed by Benjamin Wong and produced by Elizabeth Ai, their passion project BA is an accumulation of real-life experiences being Asian-American, the struggles parenting, paternal love and sacrifice, as well as the reality that not all stories have a “Hollywood ending.” Both Benjamin and Elizabeth are parents with their respective partners, and a big part of the inspiration of this film came from not knowing what it means to be a parent when experiencing it for the first time and realizing how much parents are willing to sacrifice for their child.
Star of the film, Lawrence Kao is a SoCal native that has been in the industry since he and his dance crew Kaba Modern took second place on MTV’s “America’s Best Dance Crew” in its inaugural season. From there Lawrence would go on star in projects including Netflix’s “Wu Assassins,” the sequel film “FISTFUL OF VENGEANCE, CW’s “Walk: Independence,” AMC’s “The Walking Dead,” the CW’s “The Originals,” TNT’s “Franklin & Bash,” CBS’ “Hawaii Five 0,” and MAX STEEL, to name a few.
Release date: TBD
