Maid in Singapore (2004)

The death of Flor Contemplacion cast a long shadow over the lives of Filipino workers abroad, particularly those working hard in Singapore. This documentary, by Clodualdo del Mundo, Jr., looks beyond that shadow to explore the experiences of Myla, Vhickie, and Bing. It reveals their moments of happiness alongside their profound sadness, and examines the places – like Lucky Plaza, Orchard Road, and St. Andrew’s Cathedral – where they remember their hopes and dreams. Ultimately, it highlights the strong sense of unity and resilience that defines the Filipino spirit.
