His portfolio is as diverse as his interests. His latest Singaporean feature, “Wonderland” (2024), a hyperlocal family drama, won the Audience Award at the San Diego Asian Film Festival, the Local Jury Award at the Palm Springs International Film Festival, and both Best Leading Actor and Best Supporting Actor at the inaugural Ho Chi Minh City International Film Festival.
