This short film tells the inspiring story of Teresa Hsu, a well-known Chinese-born Singaporean social worker, charting her life’s turning points and what shaped her relentless spirit of giving.

2 PG

Waiting Room by Nicole Midori Woodford Mandarin with English subtitles

A poetic reflection on death, and friendship, Tommy Yu is a man who opens up his life and home to help those who are all alone in their last hour, as they move from the world of the living to the dead.

3 PG

Ali Baba by Randy Ang English

In 1997, journalist Augustine Pang braves the risks of breaking the news of an illegal immigrant left for dead by his employer in the forested areas of Singapore. This film portrays the dilemma that we often face in life—choosing to embark on the right path or the easier one.

4 PG

The Buddy by Jason Lee English

Hidayat is an 8-year-old boy tasked to be a buddy to his classmate, Tam, and finds that he is frightened by Tam’s erratic behaviour. Although Tam’s condition is not explicitly stated, the film addresses the topic of autism, and the lack of knowledge behind this disorder, especially in the 90s.

Shelter by Sean Ng

A 17-year-old Aaron is left in debt and homeless together with his mother and younger sister after being abandoned by his father.
