A movie maker unwittingly gets a bit too involved with his subjects in this darkly comic
mockumentary.
Andrew (
Andrew Gurland) is a
documentary filmmaker who wants to make a picture about modern-day mail order marriage.
Andrew thinks he's found the perfect subject for his film when he meets
Adrian (
Adrian Martinez), a stocky snake enthusiast from Queens, NY, who earns his living as a doorman and has never had much luck with women.
Adrian wants choose a bride from a professional marriage broker's agency called Paradise Girls, and
Andrew agrees to foot the bill in exchange for the rights to make a movie about him.
Adrian soon weds
Lichi (
Eugenia Yuan), an attractive Burmese woman, but
Andrew is less than pleased to discover what
Adrian really wants from his relationship is a woman who will feed mice to his pet python, make chili just the way he likes it, and keep the house spotless while occasionally indulging some of his odder sexual fantasies.
Lichi isn't happy either, and at
Andrew's urging she leaves
Adrian and moves into
Andrew's apartment until she decides what to do next.
Andrew falls for
Lichi, and before long he asks for her hand in marriage; however, her relationship with
Adrian has stripped
Lichi of her illusions, and she becomes a very demanding bride who loudly speaks her mind and has accumulated a large and expensive collection of pig-related nick knacks.
