Who's Shooting What in 2010? He Shuming

Name of Project: In Labour (Tenaga Buruh)
Brief Description of Project:
Cik arrives on Labour Day to collect rents from her two foreign tenants - Zoe, a Chinese lady from Muar who works in a photocopy shop in an old shopping centre, and Purple, a study mama from Guangzhou working in a factory here with a young son Ah Yi. She then offers to take care of him while the two ladies set off to work.
This is a short film of these three women, their relationships with the city and among themselves, each wanting more in this land they call home.

In Labour is He Shuming's thesis short film in the BA (Hon) Film programme at The Puttnam School of Film, LASALLE College of The Arts.
