Tan Ce Ding’s debut feature “Somewhere in the South” follows protagonist Boon, a restless young man in a forgotten Malaysian town who gets roped into wearing a political party’s tiger mascot suit during a sudden by-election, only to discover he’s losing himself inside.

The film, produced by Cannes Camera d’Or winner Anthony Chen alongside Edward Lim and Yap Khai Soon through Giraffe Pictures, is one of 17 in-development projects selected for the 24th Hong Kong-Asia Film Financing Forum (HAF).
