-Associated Press
"A comic gold mine!"
-NY Post
"★★★★!"

"A lethal comedy about business, sex and the failure to communicate that bristles with intelligence."

CHINGLISH is the new comedy about the misadventures of miscommunication. It is the story of an American businessman desperate to launch a new enterprise in China. There are only three things standing in his way: He can't speak the language. He can't learn the customs. And he's falling in love with the one woman he absolutely can't have.
