The duo will discuss starting as indie Alberta filmmakers, lessons they have learned along the way, and what it is like to create and star in a show on national television.
The screening and subsequent panel discussion will happen at the Globe Cinema on February 7 as a special Calgary Underground Film Festival (CUFF) event.

Phung earned four Canadian Screen Awards (2017, 2018, 2020, and 2021) for Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for his work on Kim’s Convenience. He was also the host for The Canadian Improv Games which landed him another Canadian Screen Award for Best Host – Digital Series.
Run the Burbs follows the Phams, a young, Vietnamese-South Asian Canadian family trying to live life to the fullest while changing the perceptions about contemporary family values and life in the suburbs.
