Eden

The real-life story of a second generation Asian-American kidnapped by sex traffickers and held captive for three years. Up-and-comer Megan Griffiths explores the psyche of an innocent victim in a devastating piece of realitybased filmmaking that avoids emotional outbursts in favor of exploring the moral ambiguity that governs her every chance at survival. Constrained within the confines of a man-made purgatory, Griffiths somehow manages to capture immaculate frames of human perversion, as the title character braves the storm in the hopes of salvation. Jamie Chung plays Eden, a young woman who’s forced to reinvent a new, hard-core version of her former self in order to survive, a break-out role that’s bound to be the highlight of her career. The film won the Audience Award at SXSW, as well as two distinctions for Jamie Chung and Megan Griffiths at the Seattle International Film Festival. K.Th.
