Kulayang Ngiti

Tints of smiles

An annual tradition of advertising: politicians appearing everywhere on the streets, but does their smile and their colours truly reflect their real intentions? The experimental film captures the perspectives of those who have lost hope through broken promises and repeated disappoint-ments. In a tiring cycle of posters, parades, and campaign pledges, the longing for change is manipulated. The film serves as a cautionary commentary: it calls on viewers to question critically, choose consciously, and remain true to their own truth. At its core lies the question of whether power truly serves the people – or if self-serving motives hide behind the smiles.
