I am a beautiful beached whale by the Straits

film, 19 mins, 2014
director, producer, editor
commissioned by the National Arts Council (Singapore) for Silver Arts Festival 2014

The unique, gently sparkling universe of elderly women is traversed in this film with a surreal, intimate lens, through the everyday lives and intimate thoughts of the filmmaker’s grandmothers. These converse with meditative images of an elderly lady at a beach, twinkling on the shore of another cosmos.
