Mysterious Object at Noon

Mysterious Object at noon is part fiction, part documentary, and part pseudo documentary about several unrelated lives in Thailand. The film emphasizes a documentary approach that presents people with different professions rather than looking for a perfect and unbroken narrative of the fiction's storyline. After the journey, the crew set back for Bangkok, where the collaborated story is shot in a fiction-drama style with non-professional actors.

Shape of the Moon

Rumidjah, a 62-year-old widow, lives in Jakarta/Indonesia with her son Bakti and her 11-year-old granddaughter Tari. Since the fall of dictator Suharto seven years ago, she has witnessed the country passing through a tumultuous period of socio-political chaos. Director Leonard Retel Helmrich again visits Indonesia through three generations of the Sjamsuddin family. In this way the film continually connects small issues with large ones.

Singapore Gaga

It zooms in on our aural gems and reveals hidden faces of our past and present with a delight and humour makes it a necessary film for all Singaporeans. “GaGa” means being crazy over something in English, anger in Malay and a yearning for a time past.

Waiting

Life is indeed full of waitings. We wait for our ambition to be achieved; we wait for love to arrive. Yet, for an old couple living in a leper village in Jakarta, “waiting” is their sole means for survival, as well as the way they show love and care to each other…Marginalized and forgotten by society, the couple struggle to eke out an existence in metropolitan Jakarta. Their eyes betray the resignation they feel about their daily existence.

Stories from the North

This film is combine 9 short stories about old man, old woman, children, rice farmer and water buffalo. This is the major life that remain in Lanna villages. But where have all the younger gone? They gone to live and working in big cities like Bangkok or abroad. Yes, the young doesn’t live there anymore, they doesn’t live with the big old family, including me! Like many developing countries, Thailand is facing with capitalism and losing old tradition…

The Journey of Vaan Nguyen

In her painful blog, Vaan Nguyen unfolds the absurdities of her life as an Israeli-born Vietnamese. Her father was one of the many “boat-people” who fled Vietnam in 1975. Now, when the time has come to go back home, they both leave to Vietnam, hoping they can reclaim their confiscated lands. Their journey becomes a parable on lose of identity and on the fate of refugees.

The Last Communist

A semi-musical documentary inspired by the early life and legacy of Chin Peng, exiled leader of the banned Communist Party of Malaya. Interviews with the people in the towns he lived in from birth to national independence are interspersed with specially composed songs in the mould of old-fashioned propaganda films.

Diminishing Memories

Since 1960s, the government started resettling people in the country to make way for industrialization. Decades have passed and villages eventually replaced by tall buildings. Today, there is no village left in Singapore. This film takes you on a personal journey with me, the filmmaker, to recollect my childhood memories of living in Lim Chu Kang, a village that has already died and its spirit dispersed.
