Cast

Release

The film premiered on 30 April 2004 in the Singapore History Museum as part of the Singapore International Film Festival.[7][8]

Reception

Tay Yek Keak of The Straits Times gave the film four stars out of five, calling it "a surprisingly good part-documentary, part-film piece of work that starts out looking like an indictment of Singapore's artless soul but ends up harbouring the sad story of a man living on the margin of society."[7]
