FLAT

　　Julius and Yann Yann are friends from the theatre whom I have been wanting to work with. It was like a personal and selfish dream came true to be able to work with them both in the first project I did after my return from overseas study. Thank you for their generosity and faith. They will inspire me to write something for them in the future.

NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH

　　Shi Jie is an intelligent and talented child actor. At times he acts more professionally than any adult on set. At the audition, his eyes lit up when he heard there's no dialogue for him. He doesn't like memorizing dialogues. He said sometimes he didn't even believe his acting in those TV shows. I wish making films can always be spontaneous and fun like child play.
