“I’m half Asian,” 13-year-old Chris Wang (Izaac Wang) declares to his new skater friends in this summer’s buzzy coming-of-age film "Didi." He’s not; he’s telling an absurd lie that he believes will impress his friends. They start chanting, “Half-Asian Chris! Half-Asian Chris!”
Later, when they meet Chris’ mother and discover both his parents are Taiwanese, they sulk as they leave the room. “This kid is whack,” they mutter to themselves.
