1) I Want To Be A Plastic Chair (Macau/ Director: Ao Ieong Weng-Fong/ 2023/ 80’)
People would say, how much they wished to reincarnate as a human in their next life. But for Ming, he merely wanted to become a red plastic chair. He feels dejected and is faint-hearted, living a life of worthlessness day in day out. Arriving home after a long working day, he only finds himself in another hellish nightmare, for he shares a room with his younger sister, who is always getting laid with her boyfriend.
Ming has nowhere to hide and the unspeakable secret about his family would disturb his sleep oftentimes. As a way out, he decided to find a new home and came across Jenny, a real estate agent. The two of them seemed at odds with one another but developed a friendly understanding and became rather compatible over time. In the eyes of Ming, when will life come to an end? Every day is just a ceaseless whirlpool of misfortune.

2) A Way To The End (Macau/ Director: Ao Ieong Weng-Fong/ 2026/ 11’30)
One night, I witnessed the killing of a stray cat downstairs, which stirred up a memory of something that had passed and I could not express. I turned it into images as a way to the end.

3) Ciao (Macau & Taiwan/ Anna Ieong/ 2026/ 14’30)
Bound by an irreparable loss, he lives on day by day, carrying the way she once saw the world. He accompanies the friends around him through the final journey of life, yet can never escape the moment frozen in time. As his life reaches its twilight, somewhere between dream and waking, he meets her once more. This time, they walk side by side toward the unknown.
