This year’s Camera D’Or prize at Cannes went to the film Ilo Ilo, directed by Anthony Chen. It’s the first Singaporean film to win a major award at the Cannes Film Festival, and it was graded on Baselight TWO at Technicolor Bangkok.
Ilo Ilo chronicles the relationship between the Lim family and their newly arrived maid, Teresa. Like many other Filipino women, she has come to this city in search of a better life. Her presence in the family worsens their already strained relationship.
