Slanted is a 2026 American comedy-horror-science fiction film directed by Amy Wang, starring Shirley Chen and Mckenna Grace. A sharp, satirical look at racial identity and belonging, the film blends dark comedy with genre thrills to explore what it truly costs to fit in.

What is Slanted about?

Joan Huang, a Chinese-American high schooler, feels invisible and out of place at her school. Desperate to win prom queen and finally earn the acceptance she craves, she undergoes an experimental procedure that alters her appearance to look racially white — emerging as Jo Hunt, played by Mckenna Grace. What follows is a darkly funny and disturbing ride through the consequences of chasing conformity at any price — as Joan quickly learns that changing her face may be far easier than changing the world around her. The film escalates from awkward teen comedy into something far stranger and more unsettling as Joan's choices spiral beyond her control.

About the cast

Director Amy Wang brings a confident, genre-blending sensibility to the project. Shirley Chen anchors the film as Joan Huang, delivering a performance that balances vulnerability with dark comic energy, while Mckenna Grace takes over as Jo Hunt, Joan's post-surgery self. Maitreyi Ramakrishnan and Vivian Wu round out a cast that gives the satirical premise real emotional stakes, while Elaine Hendrix and R. Keith Harris add sharp supporting presence.

Context & significance

Themes of identity, the desire to belong, and the absurdity of conformity resonate deeply with immigrant and second-generation communities worldwide. The film's satirical sci-fi premise gives it the freedom to explore these tensions with both humor and genuine horror. Slanted is available on K-Time with Persian DUB and Persian subtitles, so viewers can choose their preferred experience.
