JING JING

JING JING
By Darren Granard

GENRE: Drama, Crime
LOGLINE: Two Americans chase the dream of opening a nightclub in Thailand-only to find themselves deep in a tropical underworld where the rules are unwritten, and only those who learn how to follow them survive.

SYNOPSIS:

Two Americans land on a Thai island looking to start over—and end up opening the island’s first hip-hop nightclub. But paradise doesn’t come easy. To survive the corrupt cops, rival gangs, and jealous ex-lovers, they’ll have to navigate an underworld they don’t understand, in a language they don’t speak, with locals and expats who don’t trust them. Inspired by real events, JING JING is Ocean’s Eleven energy with Narcos shadows and a tropical burn. It’s about loyalty, ambition, and what happens when you chase freedom to the edge of the map. “Jing Jing” means “for real” in Thai slang. And this story is exactly that.
