Four Short Films By Woo Ming Jin, Now On DVD

We recently posted the trailer for Woo Ming Jin's The Elephant And The Sea. It's a beautifully shot feature film that has been making its rounds on the festival circuit and has won two awards. The film will finally be released back home in Malaysia in August.

Meanwhile, the DVD of four short films by Woo, called The Four: Short Films By Woo Ming Jin, is now available via the Da Huang Pictures e-store. The shorts include Blue Roof (2007), Love For Dogs (2003), Catching The Sea (2005) and It's Possible Your Heart Cannot Be Broken (2005). The last short is a very funny "romantic comedy" starring fellow Malaysian independent filmmakers Tan Chui Mui (Love Conquers All) and Liew Seng Tat (Flower In The Pocket) as a pair of failed lovers. You'll get to sample Liew's rarely-seen but excellent acting chops.

Catching The Sea, meanwhile, is kind of a prelude or spin-off of The Elephant And The Sea.
