“The main character of the movie has to carry an enormous weight because… she is the vehicle that we are going to travel through this film with. And this story is going to take people through pain and loss.”

“This is a very real thing and no child is immune to going through pain and loss, whether it’s the death of a parent or divorce or the world turning upside down like in the pandemic. We took it very seriously to be able to go through that. We needed an actress who could deliver that kind of sincerity. And if you meet Cathy Ang, this is a woman who exudes a warmth. Her heart, her sincerity, you can’t help but love her,” he added.
