VIFF 2022 | INTERVIEW: Actors Cardi Wong, Parmiss Sehat, and Chris Carson On The Film "Golden Delicious"

As part of our coverage of the Vancouver International Film Festival, I had the opportunity to meet up with Vancouver based actors Cardi Wong, Parmiss Sehat, and Chris Carson, who play Jake, Val, and Aleks respectively in the film Golden Delicious.

Golden Delicious had its world premiere at VIFF on October 5, and will continue on a film festival trek that includes being the opening film for ReelWorld Film Festival in Toronto on October 12, 2022 and holding its international premiere as the closing night film for the Seattle Queer Film Festival on October 22, 2022.

In this conversation, I speak with Cardi, Parmiss, and Chris about their roles in this film, and what audiences can expect to take away from this moving coming-of-age film.

You can find more information about the film, including a list upcoming screenings, on the official Golden Delicious website. And if you’ve seen the film and would like to engage with the Golden Delicious team and share how the film resonated with you, you can contact them here.

You can also watch my conversation with director Jason Karman and producer Kristyn Stilling here.
