My Endless Numbered Days
Growing up in a small town called Asahikawa in Hokkaido, Banzai left her hometown in search of a life with a larger meaning. She finds herself stuck in a rut and constantly suffocated in a stifling and tiny country like Singapore - one even smaller than Asahikawa. As nothing goes according to plan, a message she receives sends her on a journey home, forcing her to search for closure from the fears she has been running from, with her days seemingly truly, endlessly numbered.

Shaun has been serving established Singaporean directors such as K. Rajagopal, Nicole Midori Woodford, Liao Jiekai, Elysa Wendi and Eva Tang as a director of photography. Encouraged and inspired by these directors to direct his film, Shaun developed and directed My Endless Numbered Days while he was based in Japan.
With my first feature film, I experimented with the filmmaking process where I prepared with the actors extensively for almost a year. Then during principal photography, I allowed the characters to take over with what they wanted to do and say within each scene in carefully crafted situations and in locations that are personal to the main lead in her personal life.
