"Pulau Pinang" preview

In lieu of a slug, this is I'm working on right now for this March's edition of ISSUE Magazine.

The trailer is for a short film that me and NHF  worked together on while we were travelling in Penang during the Chinese New Year weekend.

The island has a lot of old world charm, being rich in history and culture. What we had hoped to capture while we were there is the struggle that's going on right now between a dying local culture and a consumerist appetite for shallow pop that even the government now funds.

Though the movie was shot during a holiday, it is hardly a light-hearted jaunt down a dusty row of shophouses in old Georgetown.

'Pulau Pinang' will premiere March 15th in ISSUE Magazine.
