Lychee Thieves

2010 NR 35m 7.5

Arnie and Ethel's feelings of suspicion are stirred when a Hawaiian stranger named Keoki offers to harvest their lychee tree.

In Hawai'i, the highly prized lychee tree blooms only once a year. Paranoid Arnie and Ethel vow to protect their fruit from lychee thieves...at any cost! Arnie and Ethel's feelings of suspicion are stirred when a Hawaiian stranger named Keoki (Pomaika'i Brown, 50 First Dates) offers to harvest their lychee. When Arnie's selfish impulses drive him to hire professional pickers for the task instead, Keoki realizes that their lives are being dictated by fear, and attempts to set things right. Lychee Thieves explores the often humorous - and sometimes contentious - interactions among the culturally and ethnically diverse people of Hawai'i. Its lush dream sequences take us from the mystical valleys of Hawai'i to ancient China, where a smitten emperor will stop at nothing to feed his lady's lust for the rare fruit.
