Michelle Yeoh plays several characters in this short film set in Penang.

The codeswitching (language and body language) based on status / environment / character is nuanced and reflects a broad range of the Malaysian Chinese city life experience that I have been a part of.

I also love that most of it is filmed in food places, and now I am terribly homesick.

What a sweet little movie. Made me cry.

@JoshuaACNewman @skinnylatte Yeah, it was just **great** to see how all the characters came together at the end. It's about food and place and social situation, but--I know it's not the main point but--the inclusiveness and equalizing power of music.

In this moment in history, it’s such a relief to see emotions highlighted without cruelty.
