Synopsis
La Luna
The sleepy, religious and passionless town of Kampong Bras Basah has suddenly been awoken with the arrival of a lingerie shop called La Luna! But while the villagers slowly begin to welcome the shop owner with open arms, the iron-fisted religious leader of the kampung is hell-bent on driving the shop out of town at all costs!
What We Wanted to Be
An impossible love story that begins outside a movie theater, continues in a café and could end with the two protagonists together… if real life wasn’t much more complicated than the movies. United by their love of cinema, these two main characters decide to live the lives they dreamed of and not the lives they are destined to live. In a series of encounters, imagination triumphs over reality and everyday reality takes a back seat.
