NewUrbanMale.com Sponsors Screening of Happy Berry


NewUrbanMale.com is the probably the first ever fashion label to ever sponsor the Asian Film Symposium and this year at the 6th Asian Film Symposium, NewUrbanMale.com is specifically sponsoring the screening of Happy Berry and hosting its director, Thunska Pansittivorakul for the symposium.

Happy Berry is a documentary showcasing the lives of four Thai youth who run a small but successful fashion label called Happy Berry. They run the small fashion label on their own, complete with a mini-factory that is used to produce their own clothes. Yet, despite that success, they still feel incomplete -simply because of their one unfulfilled wish. The wish to be singers and television celebrities. This movie showcases the lives of these four friends, as it offers a rare peek into the realities of Thai youth culture that is obsessed with fame. Read more about the movie here.

A former playwright/actor and even a former director himself, NewUrbanMale.com Director Shenzi Chua understands the scene very well and this screening sponsorship is NewUrbanMale.com's very own way to give back to the community and the arts scene as a whole.

So don't forget to check out the 6th Asian Film Symposium running from the 9th to 17th September. For more details click here.
