“BJ $300 is the fee for a blow job service by an Enko girl. Enko is a Japanese term meaning “compensated dating” which started in 1994 when teenaged school girls began offering sexual services to lonely, middle-aged men who compensated them with money and expensive gifts. This movie follows the daily life of Little Yau, an enko girl who tells her customers she’s 15 when, in fact, she’s only 12. She dates dozens of different men, but she doesn’t care: as long as they pay in full and pay on time. She’s young, but she has no dreams. She’s strong, but her heart is empty.” “BJ $300” was one of the 27 projects selected in 2009 at the Hong Kong – Asia Film Financing Forum (HAF - http://www.haf.org.hk/). This interview with director/producer Barbara Wong and producer Gus Lim, was shot on March 23rd , 2009 at the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Center… Watch it in high resolution here: http://fredambroisine.com/videos/090509bj300.htm
