Watch Mei (2022) where Mia plays the title character - Winner of the Audience Choice in the Short of the Year film competition by Indie Shorts Mag.


Along with excellent direction comes a stellar performance from our lead, Mia Foo, who manages to convey much heartbreak without a single word of dialogue spoken. Her visual communication easily envelops us into her the immense internal struggle, stress and pressure she experiences and a moving acoustic score by Nicola Chang compliments the emotional weight of the short perfectly.
