BAR LUCID (dreaming… )
A near car crash triggers a series of recurring dreams about a love that was once sweepingly romantic and dangerously toxic. Reflecting on what should have been forgotten memories, Lexi dives into her dreams to tackle unresolved questions of her past in order to soothe the uncertainties of her awakened present.
COSMIC TORTOISE (analyzing…)
In Trinidad and Tobago where everyone aims to leave for somewhere else, Trinidadian Lisa encounters the Chinese expat Xialin who invites Lisa to participate in her research of creating a ‘behavioural clone’. Their friendship grows and develops quickly but is challenged by the possibility of a long goodbye.

ALL THE FILMS IN MY GRANDFATHER’S CLOSET (archiving…)
ALL THE FILMS is an expected series of documentaries, telling the tale of my grandfather, a Chinese Trinidadian whose life had been defined by an early marriage, resistance to cultural customs and the changing times in Trinidad and Tobago from the 1930s to 2020s via films found in his closet at the time of his death. The films are a range of DVDs, Blu-Rays and VHSs of Hollywood films, personal home videos and old Chinese cinema, which will be compiled, edited and extensively manipulated.
