Michelle Yeoh is stepping into five roles for one unforgettable performance!

The Oscar-winning actress joined filmmaker Sean Baker and self-portrait founder Han Chong to celebrate their new Residency short film Sandiwara during a special screening at the private members club Living Room in Los Angeles on Thursday (February 19).

The 11-minute film played for more than 200 guests including Kate Moss, Georgie Flores, Alana Gold, Alessandra Ambrosio, Alex Coco, Ally Maki, Aurora James, Barbara Palvin, Chriselle Lim, Dree Hemingway, Dylan Sprouse, Highdee Kuan, Jane Levy, Jason Butler, Lukita Maxwell, Marissa Bode, Marta Pozzan, Samantha Quan, Simon Rex, Tallulah Willis, U Beauty founder Tina Craig, Leenda Dong, and Oliver Muhl.

Sandiwara stars Michelle in five leading roles and is set against the vibrant streets and hawker centers of Malaysia’s Penang (Han’s hometown) and serves as an immersive celebration of womanhood, cultural identity, culinary heritage and the spirit of independent cinema.

The title Sandiwara comes from the Malay and Indonesian word meaning “drama” or “theatrical performance,” and Michelle transforms into five distinct characters: The Hawker, The Vlogger, The Waitress, The Critic and The Singer. The characters interact with one another in emotional scenes that unfold within a dazzling hawker center.

Michelle shared, “Working on this film has been very moving for me. Han Chong, my proud fellow Malaysian, masterminded the whole thing and very skilfully put Sean and I together for the first time. Working with Sean was like getting a master class in filming from a genius. This is why we love cinema, why we love doing what we do, and why I will continue to support these incredible outlets of pure creativity.”

Sandiwara, which was filmed entirely on the iPhone, is now available to stream in full on YouTube.
