Psst... scroll down to check out the perks we offer
“About five years ago, I witnessed someone jump off a bridge in front of me. There was no one else around and I chose to just walk away as quickly as possible. I never knew what happened to her. I wrote 'When I See The Wind' as a way to purge myself of the emotions that lingered from this traumatic experience, and to imagine what I could have done differently if I had been a braver person at the time." - Director King Yaw Soon
