SEEKING ASIAN FEMALE
Steven is a white man with a dream. Now in his 60s, he scours numerous catalogs and websites in search of a young Chinese wife. After fruitlessly corresponding with numerous women online, and even making some in-person visits, he finally convinces Sandy, a young woman from Anhui, to become his bride. However, when Sandy finally arrives in San Francisco, Steven gets much more than he bargained for.
Directed and narrated with considerable wit by Chinese American filmmaker Debbie Lum, who herself gets drawn unexpectedly into the story as the couple's interpreter and marriage counselor, SEEKING ASIAN FEMALE examines the effect that the internet, stereotypes, and racially-based dating preferences can have on love and marriage in the 21st century. Furthermore, Lum's linguistic connection with Sandy reveals on camera the subjectivity of a woman who decides to move across the world for a man she can barely talk to. Steven, who doesn't understand a lick of Mandarin, hasn't a clue.

Chinese woman who doesn't speak English with a hot temper marries a lonely American dweeb. What could possibly go wrong?
They have a #eliotrodger 💀
He's a creepy weirdo. Good to hear Sandy moved on. The problem with this documentary is that they didn’t have multiple couples so you could see more angles to this than just Steven and Sandy.
...this is fukin gross
They didn't last
He just wants a wifu/maid... she just wants a greencard/new life. Both think they're using the other. Stay tuned for: Who's the biggest asshole?
I fail to see how she is the asshole in anyway.
No...just understandably insecure once she found the thousands of emails from other Asian women he had in storage; watched the film, can confirm this.
I watched this documentary maybe 5 years ago now but still think about it quite often
Where u watch it? I can't find it in web nor netflix
He’s a serial killer 🤳🏾💀
Oh God.. this was awful, in a good way. Thumbs up, Debbie.
He doesn’t look like a bad person. Only super lonely. Not easy to blame.
He wants a stereotype and isn't happy with the reality he has.
Neon Tommy brought me here. Looks fascinating - can't wait to watch!
NPR brought me here.
Interesting... I haven't seen the full movie yet, does she talk about her own experiences?
wow...
Ooooh this looks interesting. Gonna have to check it out.
Where is the full episode?
Nope. Why would she? She would be revealed as a hypocrite of which she doesn't want to be accused of.
sounds like a borderline
The director Debbie is married to a white guy. So..
Probably also a mail order bride xD
@@OCV102 She was born in American, her parents as well.
@@yangyq2777 there's still a touch of hypocrisy

beware the Dragon Lady!
It really is a great story for those wondering. Don't judge this guy's life choice. It ends better then you think.
@@Bigguy_33 Got any links to prove that?
@@sarpkaya1786 it’s all gone now
I've got asian fever, i'm in my early 40's... But seeing that a 70 yr old can get a young orient, makes me happy. Before i had slavic fever for ukranians. Can't decide which one to buy?
You're a vile pos who only wants to exploit some poor woman. With that approach you will only ever attract women with zero integrity who will leave you the moment they have your country's passport
oriental ladies all the way, and by oriental i mean east asian or south east asian.
vietnamese is no1 with no competition.
@@saccount-z3 the more slanted eyes, the flatter the the better, is the fetish. I heard Mongolians or northern Chinese are super oriental.
