ARTIST UNKNOWN Trailer: A Prized Painting Sets The Stage For A Fighter’s Biggest Match Yet

At long last with at least one festival screening and a few award wins in the can, director Cinder Chou can finally tout her feature debut a little more with the official trailer now circulating for indie romantic caper comedy, Artist Unknown. The film, starring Kerry Lacy and Sonia Mena, is currently setting up shop at more festivals with Chou looking to potentially screen at Fort Lauderdale later this year.

Seldom do I get the opportunity to help spotlight a local project that appeals to me. I found that opportunity several years ago as Cinder Chou, a long time production coordinator and assisstant on a number of projects before segueing to directing short films, began envisioning her feature directorial debut.

The 13th annual Art Of Brooklyn Film Festival kicks off next week in New York City, host to a collection of fifty narrative feature films, documentaries and shorts spanning multiple genres. You can find more in the line-up, although it pleases me the most that Cinder Chou’s independent feature debut, Artist Unknown, is finally making headway with a World Premiere for the festival on June 6.

Close to four years after getting briskly acquainted with the screen prowess of actress Kerry Lacy in 2017 short, Viola, I remained watchful of her movements in hopes that I would hear more about the short film saga and her other endeavors. Gradually this led me to discover her new partnership with Taiwanese-American director Cinder Chou at the time as filming went underway for the independent queer action romantic comedy-drama, Artist Unknown which now finds Lacy in her debut lead role from a script by Chou.

Taiwanese-American filmmaker Cinder Chou is well on her way this year with local New York City film production, Artist Unknown. The film remains in production with pick-up shots currently in toe, while Chou herself has graciously given us the greenlight to share a small raft of stills which you can view below.

Lacy applied this concept accordingly with the film’s coordinator, industry stunt performer, martial artist and fight trainer Paul Varacchi who actually alerted me to Viola last year at a birthday party. Moreover, Lacy has been studying martial arts since the age of six and so the prospects of seeing both student and teacher collaborate on an action project lends heavily on just how bigger Lacy’s filmic brainchild could be in terms of action for the story scope. With any luck though, production on Viola 2 had much more grace in terms of set time what with Lacy’s experience on the first being more expeditious than preferred, save for the intensity and excitement with cameras rolling.
