About Filial Party
Directed by Boris Boo巫培双 and scripted by award winning Rebecca Leow洪夕, Filial Party is set in modern Singapore where reality TV game show “I Am Filial” has taken the nation by storm with its $1-million prize money pledged for the winner who portrays exceptional filial piety. The popular game show is the brainchild of producer Millionaire Liu (played by Mark Lee), who is determined to achieve the highest ratings ever in local TV history. After a few grueling and exciting elimination rounds, the show has produced three final contestants from very different backgrounds and each with different agendas for joining the contest. School security guard Beng (played by Christopher Lee), hotshot lawyer Yishuang (played by Ann Kok) and high school student Tryphena will pull out all the stops to ensure that they will be the eventual winner.
The movie is scheduled to be released in the second quarter of 2014.
