The feature documentary, Warrior Legend, is now in production. The film examines my challenging relationship with my father, renowned martial arts expert, coach and promoter, Frank Lee, as I endeavor to better understand the man, the choices heʼs made, and connect us after two decades of limited contact. I delve into my father’s life long work in the martial arts through a hybrid of animation, archival footage and stills, but mainly through the capture of my own return to the martial arts and training with my father nearly 25 years after stepping away. The goal: that I might seek to reveal the secret identity behind his larger than life persona, to inform him as to the man I have become and to build a bridge for myself and my sons to carry on, even some small part, of his culture and legacy after he is gone.
Warrior Legend is produced by Corkscrew Films, in conjunction with the National Film Board and enriquePoe Moving Pictures. The project continues principal photography until June and is scheduled for release in 2012.
