Joy Ride
Four friends. One trip. No luck.
Directed by Adele Lim
Produced by Lionsgate, Point Grey Pictures
A high-spirited buddy comedy about female friendship and self-discovery, driven by irreverent humor and genuine affection among four women on a chaotic Asian adventure.
When Audrey's business trip to Asia goes sideways, she enlists the aid of Lolo, her irreverent, childhood best friend who also happens to be a hot mess; Kat, her college friend turned Chinese soap star; and Deadeye, Lolo's eccentric cousin. Their no-holds-barred, epic experience becomes a journey of bonding, friendship, belonging, and wild debauchery that reveals the universal truth of what it means to know and love who you are.
