TECHNICOLOUR Short Film Funding

TECHNICOLOUR is a black comedy short film about a 13-year-old girl who grows closer to her estranged grandma after helping plan her funeral behind their family's back.

"I have always been drawn to the humour found in the rawest parts of being human. When my grandma passed away, what comforted me wasn’t having a perfect family or having no regrets. In fact, it was the bond that came with facing death together as a family. I hope the lighthearted perspective in TECHNICOLOUR will be a reminder that death is an inevitable part of being human, and what matters is how we choose to work through it."

- Eunice Chua, Writer and Director

How will the money be used?

We have to cover most of the costs out of our own pockets which is difficult as we are still studying. We will greatly appreciate every cent that is donated and your support means a lot!
