The Donut King (2021, 99 minutes) presents the story of Ted Ngoy, a Cambodian refugee who helped sponsor visas for incoming refugees while building and expanding his donut shop chain throughout the West Coast. Directed by Alice Gu, the film chronicles his experiences of growing up as a Chinese immigrant in Cambodia, fleeing the Khmer Rouge regime, settling in Orange County, and his transnational political career demarcated by his rising gambling addiction.
