WRINKLES
by Paul Kikuchi
Directed by Jeff Liu
Performed by Marilyn Tokuda, Tohoru Masamune, Julia Cho, and Scott Shima
Synopsis: Unbeknownst to his daughter and grandson, 73-year-old Nisei Harry Fukutani is an Internet sensation! But to view his work, one has to turn off the parental filter and have a valid credit card. A sticky comedy about sex, lies, and Tiger Balm.
