CGiii Comment

The HD camera works well - it does look good.

The acting ranks as one of the worst...along with the script.

If you can get through the first 2 minutes without switching off...it doesn't get any better...good luck.

Switch off.

Innocent and naive, the 17-year-old Lian is a maid to a rich family in Malaysia, whose sheltered existence is shattered when she is sent to work at a small hotel near Bugis Street in neighbouring Singapore. Having to live with the transvestites and transexuals who make her living on the streets, Lian soon learns about another side of life.
