Causeway (In development)
A mechanic from Singapore and a factory worker from Malaysia. Across the Causeway, love blossoms. But a desperate bid to better their lives takes an unexpected twist. His fate falls into the hands of a hotshot lawyer who, unknown to both, shares a passion for Teresa Teng with this stranger from the opposite end of society. 'Causeway' explores the mysterious interconnectivity that is part of everyday life.
The film had been selected for Taipei Golden Horse Film & TV Project Promotion 2010.
Free (In development)
A story of redemption and forgiveness of a Japanese man in a foreign land.
'Free' received the script development grant from Media Development of Singapore in 2007.
Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner (2010)
Helmed by three female directors, this omnibus features three films set in China, Thailand and Singapore respectively. Each story occurs at a specific mealtime, and seeks to interpret the frailties and complexities of love through different Asian perspectives.
All three stories are tethered with the question, "Will you marry me?"
Mirroring the repasts themselves, Breakfast and Dinner are heavier in tone, while Lunch is light with a sprinkle of humour.
The film had been selected for the 6th edition of Paris Project Screening 2008 and Taipei Golden Horse Film & TV Project Promotion 2007.
