IMPASSIBLE: Check Out Sebastian Kong And Virak Thun’s New Webseries Streaming For Nikon 2025
Directing duo Sébastien Kong and Virak Thun have a mini webserial entry now among the lot vying for votes of this year’s fifteenth edition of the Nikon Film Festival. The series in question? Impassible, a snackable, roughly 6 x 2″ action drama penned by Kong and Thun, and starring Steve Tran and Laura Bui, and fight sequences by Kevin Ke.
Hao is in debt but has a special ability. To take the pain. He gets paid to be tortured on stream. Until one day it goes too far for his friend Liya who intervenes during a “performance”. They are hunted by Hao’s employers.
The episodes are all easy to watch, and each part is shot in one take. Imaginably none of this is easy to do on one take alone, which makes you wonder how many takes there were for each part, if that, especially while filming action amid the drama.
There’s a level of pressure to keep the consistency and tone going, so you have to give it to these guys for putting somethihg like this together. Also, the action takes on a bit of a different identity later in the series when it comes to Bui’s character, and you’ll be sure see how that bodes when you check it out for yourself. The only real issue is there are no English subs, and even then, the dialogue is almost minimal, so you can pretty much digest what’s happening by simply watching.
You’ll find all six parts of Impassible available at the official Nikon Film Festival website where you can vote for your favorite title among the entries included in the Parisian event which campaigns through March 20. There’s a brisk promo available as well which you can view below.
