BEAST is a series of short films. The objective of the research is to look at the underrepresentation of British East Asians in cinema and TV and increase the visibility of British East Asians on screen.

Whassup with the Wong’s is made in the style of an English costume drama and uses the verbatim dialogue to create pathos and satire in order to highlight the marginalization of British East Asian writers in the commissioning process.
