Snow in Midsummer

The film follows Ah Eng and Dou E, who find themselves trapped in a complex narrative spanning 49 years. Set against the backdrop of post-election tensions in 1969 Kuala Lumpur, the story revolves around the Cantonese street opera "Snow in June," where Dou E is portrayed by the troupe master. As Ah Eng and her mother navigate the chaos of a riot, they seek refuge with the opera troupe, resulting in a heartbreaking separation from family.

Fast forward to 2018, Ah Eng returns to Kuala Lumpur and has a poignant encounter with the character of Dou E at a cemetery. This connection across time underscores the film's exploration of memory and the lasting effects of history on personal identities. With a strong cast featuring Wanfang, Pearlly Chua, and Rexen Cheng Jen-Shuo, the film brings to life the rich tapestry of cultural history and familial bonds.
