A photo-montage love letter
to the Filipina Domestic Workers of Hong Kong.
A visual recreation of true memories shared by this community of 400,000 women (millions globally) follows one woman's plan to run away. Captured on Super-16 amidst Hong Kong Protests, it blends stills with motions to highlight the passionate Street Dancing of these marginalized women, and touch upon LGBTQ+ themes, issues of Workers' Rights, and Hong Kong's changing political landscape.
