Waiting For The Light to Change takes place over the course of a week-long beachside getaway. Set over several days in and around a lake house in Michigan, the film follows five twenty-somethings who gather for a small getaway in the early spring. But with little to do in the small, lakeside town, everyone finds themselves dealing with the sort of malaise that happens in one’s early-to-mid twenties: growing older, establishing a career, finding a purpose in life, going over past regrets, and anxious about what the future might hold.

Sam Straley, Eric Barrientos, Qun Chi, Joyce Ha and Jin Park star in the pic directed by Tran, who co-wrote the script with Jewells Santos and Delia Van Praag. Producers are Jake Rotger, Jewells Santos and Straley. James Choi served as executive producer.
