Walk is a bittersweet comedy-drama inspired by the plight of migrant workers during the 2020 lockdown. It is a story about the courage and resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity, and a tribute to those who have suffered in silence during this pandemic. It is a story that seeks to bring to light the plight of those left behind in this crisis, and to remind us that we all have to come together to rebuild our lives. With Walk, I want to capture the pain, joy, and hope that comes with the journey of life, and to remind us all that when we stand together, no hardship is insurmountable.
