PopCultureShock’s very own Joe Doughrity has a new film starring James Kyson Lee (Ando from NBC’s Heroes). It’s called Akira’s Hip-Hop Shop and was written & directed by Joe D. and edited by PCS’ Shola Akinnuso. Here’s the deal:
A Japanese man falls in love with a black woman. Akira co-owns a record store on Melrose in L.A. with his friend Jeremy (a black guy who loves Japanese culture). His life changes when he meets Daphne, a passionate African-American woman with her own ambitions. Exploring issues of race, friendship, love, and the globalization of hip-hop culture, this is a romantic comedy for a new generation.
