CBA Front Cover.jpgA commercial directed by Yasmin Ahmad for the Singapore Ministry of Community Development, Youth & Sports has scored two of Asia’s three finalists in the newly introduced Film Craft category at Cannes. The extremely respected and loved Yasmin Ahmad tragically died of a stroke last year, making this “Funeral” spot a sentimental favourite with the Asian delegates in Cannes.

Asia’s third shortlist in Film Craft was for Nike Music Store via production company Taiyo Kikahu Tokyo.
