The Donut King is a 2020 American documentary film which tells the life story of California donut shop owner Ted Ngoy.

Production

Ngoy was hesitant to return to California for the film; he was estranged from his children and former friends. Gu persuaded him to and, ultimately, he regarded his return as a 'healing experience,' and his ex-wife and children have forgiven him.
