The closing night film of the 2019 Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival is Empty by Design, a story of two filipino millenials who return home after some time abroad and find themselves drawn together through their mutual loneliness. On this episode of the KollabCast, we chat with director Andrea A. Walter, Producer/Actors Osric Chau and Chris Pang, and editor Brian Merrick about their work on the film, their challenges as indie filmmakers, and their thoughts as they prepare to world premiere their film at LAAPFF.
