In Review: WHITE ELEPHANT by Andrew Chung

April 8, 2021

Andrew Chung‘s first feature, White Elephant, offers a fresh perspective based on many 1990s high school rom-coms.

Set in 1996, in a majority-minority neighbourhood in Scarborough, 16-year-old Pooja (Zaarin Bushra) finds herself torn between her crush on Trevor, a white boy (Jesse Nasmith), and her friends Manpreet (Gurleen Singh) and Amit (Dulmika Hapuarachchi).
