A Yellow Bird

After years behind bars, freshly released Siva Sudhakar, a 38-year-old Singaporean Indian man, faces a hostile homecoming and is alienated from his family. Now an urban vagabond, Siva embarks on a quest to track down people from his life before prison, seeking to right the wrongs of his past. In his lonely journey, he finds a kindred spirit in Chen Chen, also an isolated spirit with whom he forms a connection.

Just as Siva begins to find solace and hope, he is confronted with the heinous truth of his ex-wife and daughter’s whereabouts and circumstances. How far will he go in order to redeem himself from his guilt?
