A Love With Limits

When she enrolled for a class on film history at Pomona College her freshman year, Jennifer Phang had no idea what she was getting herself into. After studying works from esteemed directors like Akira Kurosawa, she and the other students in the class were assigned to re-create a classic Japanese film.

Her creation was anything but a masterpiece. In fact, she admits, “It was a really bad film.” But she also adds, “the process was fun and I fell in love with film. I fell in love with the imagery and directing.”

Now six years later, writer/director Phang is creating a buzz among the film festival circuit with her debut short, Love, Ltd.
