Standing up for your brother has consequences.
17 January 2023
Gripping account on how it feels to be at odds with some of your community whilst supported by others. Loyalties are tested in this story where the power of a viral video can have major consequences.

Really meaningful work from Ken Kwek and supporting team. It really brings to light how just being yourself, and speaking up is immeasurably harder when you or your sibling is part of the LGBTQ+ community.

The poignancy of parts combined with the dark humour of others made for a compelling watch.

Some notable performances. Yao plays two brothers with great effect. Touching and guenuine performance. My best actor goes to Pam Oei for a caring, devoted, loyal yet pragmatic Mother figure. If you were in this situation you'd want Pam's character rooting for you too. Highly recommended watch.
