James T. Hong has been producing thought-provoking, unconventional, and occasionally controversial films and videos for a decade in San Francisco, California. "His moving image works are a sump-hole of chilling irony in which neo-fascist pronouncements vie for primacy with proto-liberal anxieties," according to the Pacific Film Archive. In 2006, he was honored with a Goldies Award in Film from the San Francisco Bay Guardian, where Cheryl Eddy wrote: "It's rare when a filmmaker is able to match provocative themes with evocative imagery and do it consistently. Addressing race and class issues in his arrestingly photographed works, James T. Hong is one such artist."
