OFFICIAL WINNER OF THE HOLLYWOOD ENCORE PRODUCERS’ AWARD
Protesting abysmally low wages, even for 1930s San Joaquin County, Filipino farm laborer bunkmates go on strike, not yet realizing what they need more than cash is each other. A workplace comedy taking place in one of the worst workplaces to ever exist, Monkeys shows a group of friends trying to make the best out of their lives at the bottom and maybe find love even though it’s illegal for them to marry. Monkeys: A derogatory term created by American soldiers during colonization referring to Filipinos as “Tailless monkeys”.
