Aunt Lotus & Her Dream Bicycle is a Mandarin and Teochew language short film that follows the story of Aunt Lotus, a blind grandma who dreams of riding a bicycle again. Determined to fulfil her desire, Aunt Lotus constructs an unusual cycling simulation, using nothing but common household items.
Starring veteran theatre practitioner Jalyn Han, the film examines the theme of living with a sense of adventure and fearlessness in order to chase one’s dreams. To be launched at Cultural Extravaganza 2022, the screening will be the world premiere of Aunt Lotus & Her Dream Bicycle, followed by a Q&A session with the filmmakers and cast.
