David Huang - Hot Chocolate film

Hot Chocolate, a short film directed by Emily Vargas and produced by FM student David Huang premiered last month at the 6th Annual Autumn’s Dawn Film Festival in NYC! Created for the summer 2026 section of FILMP 352 Film Production 2, the film stars Charles Huang in the lead role of Júko, a man whose mind wanders into a false world following the loss of his partner. This queer romantic tragedy takes viewers on a surreal journey while asking questions about the nature of grief and on whether one can truly feel complete without their other half.
