To age is a natural part of the human process that one can not skip. Yet, we’d rather close our eyes to the ageing truth and neglect the fact that the elders still exist and need to be treated equally as other citizens. This program is dedicated to gracefully respecting the seniors of our life.
Bhinneka means diversity and these stories capture how diversity can be a powerful tool that brings people (and hearts) together. How children define their particular views on faith. When families are tested through various hard times and still rekindle love. And how life choices we made can bring empathy for those in need.
This is the program for those in love, or searching on the possibility to find or to believe in love. As with all good things in life, love may not come easily. Sometimes it’s just flowing unexpectedly, like an abundant fluid that fills the jar. And sometimes, when you feel like you have it in your hands, suddenly it slips away and leaves you empty.
The world may tilt their head when they see us. People may look surprised to see the biggest smiles often born from despair. These six stories will inspire you nevertheless as when everyone thinks that you are broken, you realise that the spirit will always stay unbreakable.
What is it like to be a Venus of Milo? An icon of beauty that is adored for showing a perfect skin, body and smile. A boring standard that has to be fulfilled by women. Fortunately, the dames portrayed in these films think otherwise and they will show you a different side of Venus that will keep you surprised.
This new program is created to appreciate young, first time filmmakers and students that dig social issues and human stories deeper than just meet the eyes. 100% STMJ (Shorts Term Memory of Joy) will remind you of the very first joy of filmmaking from the heart.
