Joy Ride Movie #GoldOPEN Chicago

Join Chicago Asian Network (CAN) and Gold House in celebrating JOY RIDE's #GoldOpen and congratulating the all-star API cast and crew by going out to ShowPlace ICON Theatre on July 16, 2023 (Sunday) to watch #JoyRideMovie.

"Joy Ride” is a prime example of how important representation is on screen and proves that Asian American comedians can be just as funny, raunchy, and successful as their white male counterparts. - Marisa Maribal, IndieWire

Joy Ride stars Ashley Park, Sherry Cola, Oscar® nominee Stephanie Hsu, and Sabrina Wu. The hilarious and unapologetically explicit story of identity and self-discovery centers on four unlikely friends who embark on a once-in-a-lifetime international adventure. When Audrey’s (Ashley Park) business trip to Asia goes sideways, she enlists the aid of Lolo (Sherry Cola), her irreverent, childhood best friend who also happens to be a hot mess; Kat (Stephanie Hsu), her college friend turned Chinese soap star; and Deadeye (Sabrina Wu), Lolo’s eccentric cousin. Their no-holds-barred, epic experience becomes a journey of bonding, friendship, belonging, and wild debauchery that reveals the universal truth of what it means to know and love who you are.

Let’s celebrate Asian joy with this bold film that defies all Asian women stereotypes and will make you laugh, cry, and want to see it again and again.
