Erin Quill & Chil Kong are pleased to announce that the
feature film,
The Sensei, will be
released on DVD on March 9, 2010 by Echo Bridge Entertainment. They are Associate Producers on the film,
which was written and directed by Diana Lee Inosanto, who is the Goddaughter of
Martial Arts legend, Bruce Lee, and an accomplished Martial Artist in her own right.
The Sensei has been endorsed by The Matthew Shepard Foundation’s Thomas Howard, who called
it, “A film that will change hearts and minds…and more
importantly, save lives.” Philip Chung of Asian Week Magazine called it, “A
different kind of martial arts film” and Frameline called it, “An ambitious
genre-bending indie”.
The Sensei has been featured as an Official Selection in 12
film festivals, winning four awards, including a ‘Best Feature’ and a Jury
‘Grand Prize’.
The story revolves around Karen O’Neill, a Martial Artist
who was denied advancement in her Dojo because she was a woman, returning home
after an absence of five years. In their small town in the rural Midwest, young
McClain Evans is the target of repeated and escalating bullying. When the two
meet, their destinies collide.
The theme of The Sensei is, “You have a right to defend
yourself against hatred”
It is available for pre-order on
