Body horror comedy Slanted is set to open in theaters nationwide on March 13 via Bleecker Street.
It follows Joan Huang, who idolizes the popular girls and dreams of being prom queen, but fears the only way to win is to look like all the past queens whose portraits line her high school halls.
Enter Ethnos: a mysterious cosmetic surgery clinic that turns people of color white. Joan undergoes the procedure and wakes up a beautiful blonde destined for the crown, but at what cost?
Shirley Chen (Dìdi), Mckenna Grace (Five Nights at Freddy’s 2), Vivian Wu (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III), Maitreyi Ramakrishnan (“Never Have I Ever”), Amelie Zilber (“Grown-ish”), and Fang Du star.
Writer-director Amy Wang (“The Brothers Sun”) makes her feature debut on the project, which premiered at last year’s SXSW and took home the Narrative Grand Jury Award.
From Tideline Entertainment and Mountain Top Pictures, producers include Wang, Trevor Wall, Adel “Future” Nur, Cameron Boling, and Mark Ankner.
