Grant: I Believe in You Grant
Steven, a white, aging, garage attendant scours the Internet for a young Chinese bride. His fantasy comes true when Jianhua, “Sandy,” a bright, 30-year-old from Anhui Province accepts his online proposal, and flies to San Francisco on a fiancée visa. With 90 days to decide whether to tie the knot, these two strangers must overcome the true distances between them: age, culture, language and expectation. Filmmaker, narrator, and reluctant marriage counselor Debbie Lum may be their only hope, but she is not convinced: could it possibly be love?
