Directed by Eric Khoo; starring Theresa Chan, Chiew Sung-Ching, Seet Keng-Yew, Ezann Lee

Eric Khoo's Be With Me is a muddled, well-meaning movie from Singapore telling (with very little dialogue) three parallel stories about grief, personal communication and love (heterosexual, lesbian, fulfilled, unfulfilled). The film's saving grace is the moving performance by 61-year-old Theresa Chan playing herself.

Blind and deaf since the age of 15, she spent several years at a special school in the States where she learnt to speak, read Braille, dance, skate, ride a horse, type, cook, and do handicrafts, which she teaches to blind children in Singapore. She's truly the Helen Keller of south east Asia.
