Synopsis
Fiona, My Friend tells you the lives of two individuals from different walks of lives coming together. Mdm Fong, a 65-year-old lady who is having dementia and her new helper Fiona from the Philippines who make us realize what is the meaning of having someone who cares for you. Mdm Fong’s only caregiver is her daughter who is a single mom of a teenager. The old lady hasn’t spoken much and struggles with playing the piano ever since. This short film explores the friendship and mutual respect between an old lady and her new helper Fiona.

[@cynthiabianzon5408]

H. Jon. If you are not a Filipino the nanny was telling her Mom that what she is experiencing is unfair. She wants to be with her friends and be a music teacher but asks why she is in this situation. Her Mom has a debt to pay and she, the daughter has to work.

[@user-qj5bi2pn8w]

Pekerjaan pembantu itu berat ,apalagi ketika kita tidak melakukan kesalahan-kesalahan apapun tetapi boss kita mengirim kita ke agency tanpa alasan,itu sangat membuat kita sangat rugi karena potongan gajih akan bertambah,, jujur Boss singaporean itu jahat jahat jarang ada yang baik 😂
