Three months have passed since the disappearance of the two-year-old daughter of Junyan and Pei Ying, a young couple from Singapore. Just as they seem to be giving up, they receive a series of videos and realise that someone has been filming them in their daily lives. From the Official Section of the Venice Film Festival, the new film by Yeo Siew Hua, winner of the Golden Leopard at Locarno in 2018, exposes us, through the language of surveillance cameras, to the complex position of being a parent today and to the commitment of struggling against a loss for which you are unprepared while everyone seems to be watching. Starring Lee Kang-sheng, an absolute icon of Tsai Ming-liang's cinema, this frantic quest depicts the existential vertigo of its characters, a vulnerable family that endures despite constantly seeing its intimacy under attack in a world that forces us to coexist with images. 
Yeo Siew Hua

He studied Philosophy at the National University of Singapore and is a founding member of the film collective 13 Little Pictures. He wrote and directed the experimental film ‘In the House of Straw’ (2009), lauded by critics as a significant film of the Singapore New Wave. In 2015 he participated in Talents Tokyo and competed in the Autumn Meeting 2016, where he won the Grand Prix for the project of his second work of fiction, ‘A Land Imagined’ (2018), which won the Golden Leopard for best film at the Locarno Film Festival, in addition to awards from the young and ecumenical juries and the award for best cinematography at Seminci. With ‘Stranger Eyes’ (2024) he became the first Singaporean filmmaker to compete in the Official Section of the Venice Film Festival.
