“A short-legged girl in a long legged world.”
A neurotic junior fashion designer from New York discovers her fiancé, KIET, working overseas in Vietnam may be having an affair with a supermodel. With jealousy burning and her wedding date on the horizon, she conjures up a scheme to achieve the ultimate makeover, investigate the supermodels and infiltrate the high-fashion world of Saigon in order to catch him in the act. But her plan backfires when she really befriends the three supermodels and discovers that there is more to life than living through a series of checklists.
KEY FACTS
On October 13th, 2013, How to Fight in Six Inch Heels had its world premier in Saigon, Vietnam. A film that is equal parts sisterhood, viet kieu, chick flick and romantic comedy – How to Fight in Six Inch Heels soared into the hearts of audiences across Vietnam making it the number one film there for three consecutive weeks.
Vietnamese film critics gave it praise as the most critically acclaimed film of the year while Kathy Uyen went on to receive the coveted Golden Kite award for Best Actress.
On March 13th, 2014, the film made a splash at the US premier in San Francisco, hosted at the historic Castro Theater. US audiences embraced the same qualities of the film that made it a hit in Vietnam.
It is now time to share this charming film with Vietnamese communities across the US. A film that will not only entertain, but will ignite a sense of pride knowing it was made by filmmakers from within our very own communities.
• # 1 film for three weeks and the best reviewed comedy of the year.
• Kathy Uyen received the Golden Kite award for Best Actress in 2014 for her role as Anne
** GK award is Vietnam’s Oscars**
• The film was awarded the Silver Kite for best feature film in 2014
• In 2014, The film was selected as the Opening Night film for CAAMFEST in San Francisco and the Vietnamese International Film Festival. The film was also an official selection at the Hawaiian Film Festival, San Diego Spring Showcase, New York Asian American Film Festival and Los Angeles Asian American Film Festival.
• In 2015, Official Selection - Seattle Asian American Film Festival to sold out audiences.
• Wave Releasing will roll out the film theatrically on March 27th .

A NOTE FROM WAVE RELEASING PARTNER – TIMOTHY LINH BUI
In our latest feature, HOW TO FIGHT IN SIX INCH HEELS, our heroine, Anne, returns to her birth country of Vietnam to discover her dream of becoming a fashion designer. Many Vietnamese-American filmmakers have taken a similar journey to find their own dream.
Over the last decade, Vietnamese cinema's rapid ascension largely is a result of the influx of Vietnamese-American filmmakers returning to the motherland to tell their stories. These stories often find success in Vietnam yet fall short of reaching the shores back home.
The dearth of Vietnamese films in the US is not due to lack of demand or failure of theaters open to exhibiting them. It is due to the lack of traditional distributors willing to take on such foreign films.
To bring high quality Vietnamese films to our American communities we must create the distribution platform from within the community. This has been the driving inspiration since we founded Wave Releasing in 2008.
I look forward to bringing the award winning film HOW TO FIGHT IN SIX INCH HEELS home to our communities here in the United States, and to create a distribution platform that will be renowned in bringing the very best of Vietnamese cinema to audiences in the US and worldwide.
BIO (Ham Tran, Timothy Linh Bui, Kathy Uyen)
TIMOTHY LINH BUI
In 1997, Timothy co-wrote and co-produced THREE SEASONS – the first American film to be produced in Vietnam since the war. It stars Harvey Keitel and is a triple award winner at the 1999 Sundance Film Festival. Bui was given the opportunity to tell his passion project about the Vietnamese refugee experience at Camp Pendleton in GREEN DRAGON; starring Patrick Swayze and Forest Whitaker. The film made its world premiere at the 2001 Sundance Film Festival in Dramatic Competition and is the recipient of the Humanitas Prize Award.
In 2004, he produced INSIDE OUT, starring Kate Walsh, Eriq La Salle, Steven Webber and Russell Wong. The Thriller was released by Anchor Bay. In 2008, Bui executive produced OWL AND THE SPARROW, which world premiered at the Rotterdam International Film Festival and won the Audience Award at the Los Angeles Film Festival and was a nominee for the Spirit Awards.
Facing the frustration of traditional distribution practice where foreign language films are often reserved for the festival circuit - Bui formed Wave Releasing in 2008, an indie distribution company committed to building a theatrical platform for Vietnamese language films. Wave is set to distribute its fourth such film in 2015.
Bui returned to the director’s chair in 2009 , also as writer and producer on POWDER BLUE; starring Forest Whitaker, Jessica Biel, Ray Liotta and Eddie Redmayne..
In 2012 he formed Happy Canvas, a development company committed to creating original stories that are distinctive, yet universally appealing. HOW TO FIGHT IN SIX INCH HEELS is the first film under this banner. A romantic comedy set in Saigon and New York. The film opened #1 at the box office in Vietnam 2013 and will be release in the US in Spring 2015.
Bui recently completed THE THROWAWAYS, an original feature for Sony Crackle starring James Caan, Kevin Dillon and Sam Huntington.

Born in Vietnam, Ham Tran immigrated to America as a refugee in 1982.

Tran's thesis film The Anniversary won the prestigious USA Film Festival award for Best Short Film, which qualified the film for the 2004 Academy Awards® for Best Live Action Short. Tran’s first full-length feature film, Journey from the Fall, premiered at Sundance in 2006, and had its theatrical release in the Spring of 2007. It is a film about a Vietnamese family’s emigration in the aftermath of the Vietnam War. The DVD was released in the Fall. In 2008, Tran Executive Produced Spirit Award Nominated film “Owl and the Sparrow”, written and directed by Stephane Gauger, and Associate Produced an award winning documentary, “Oh Saigon!” directed by Doan Hoang. Seeing a gap in film US distribution for Vietnamese language films, Tran co-founded Wave Releasing in 2009 with fellow filmmakers Stephane Gauger and Timothy Bui. Since then Tran has helped secure US distribution for popular Vietnamese films such as “Clash”, “Passport to Love”, and “Battle of the Brides”. As an editor, he has edited most of the highest box-office grossing Vietnamese films such as, “Dong Mau Anh Hung (The Rebel)”, “De Mai Tinh (Fool For Love)”, and “Long Ruoi (The Big Boss)”.
