The Shadow Sea

Identity, sacrifice and the ramifications of violence are the major themes underlying THE SHADOW SEA.

Reeshar wanders the streets of Bangkok in search of his missing lover; a beautiful but troubled transgender prostitute named Deh.

Her disappearance has turned his life upside down and drawn him into the darkest corners of the Thai capital where nothing is what is seems to be and few foreigners dare tread. But Reeshar is no typical beer-and-hooker expat.

He's a former hitman from Las Vegas who came to Bangkok with a price on his head.

And his obsession with finding Deh isn't as simple as "boy misses girl" but is rooted in events from his youth; events that have driven the course of his entire life. Working with no budget of any kind and an eclectic, dedicated volunteer cast (which includes four transgender actresses in serious, primary roles) writer/director Richard Chambers has crafted a noir tale for the 21st century in which East and West, past and present collide on the rain-soaked streets of Bangkok.
