| description | "Sisters" is a final year project focussed on telling the story of sex workers in Singapore's Orchard Towers. Culminating in a film script as a final product, the story revolves around a pair of women connected to the sex work industry - a current sex worker and an ex-sex worker - and explores the intricacies of their interdependent relationship with each other. Based largely on real life events - a huge part of the scriptwriter's research and fieldwork - "Sisters" aims to let the audience have a glimpse of Orchard Tower's sex work industry and the problems sex workers face through the eyes of these two sisters, albeit non-biological. Along with their interactions with the people around them, when crisis strikes this pair of women and forces them to face the very elements that have turned them both in and out of this industry - will they be able to turn this crisis around to their advantage? |
