Film director playing the Chinese card in Hollywood

Originally studying finance in Singapore, Lim got bored and got interested in acting and since then has been hooked, to a point where his life goal is to become a Hollywood director.

He was most inspired by Christopher Nolan’s psychological thriller “Memento” and Quentin Tarantino’s neo-noir “Pulp Fiction” and counts Stephen Chow’s martial arts comedy “Kung Fu Hustle” and Hideo Nakata’s psychological horror “Ring” as his favourite Asian films.
