Plot:	13-year-old Ernest Chin finds himself forever stuck at his family's sleazebag motel. But his life changes when charismatic Sam Kim checks into the motel and takes fatherless Ernest for a wild ride toward manhood, for better or worse.
Overview:	A new comedy from the makers of "Me And You And Everyone We Know", "The Good Girl" and "Chuck & Buck". Puberty sucks, and nobody know it better than 13-year-old Ernest Chin. As he watches guests come and go, Ernest finds himself forever stuck at his family's hourly-rate motel. He is forced to divide his time between taking orders from his overbearing mom, cleaning up after the miscreant guests staying at the motel, and longing for the girl of his dreams, 15-year-old Christine. He lacks the courage to tell her how he feels--that is, until charismatic Sam Kim checks into the motel and takes fatherless Ernest for a wild ride toward manhood, for better or worse. "The Motel", directed by Michael Kang and starring Sung Kang ("Pearl Harbor", "The Fast And The Furious: Tokyo Drift"), Samantha Futerman ("Memoirs Of A Geisha") and introducing Jeffrey Chyau as Ernest.
