Back to Work

Housewife Lifen returns to work after a long absence, but her maid, Adi, runs away. Determined to save her career, Lifen sets out to find Adi. However, when Lifen “captures" Adi at a migrant worker beauty pageant, the actual reason behind Adi's escape leaves Lifen with an even harsher choice.

Directed by Zoe Chang, Back to Work leans on a strong ensemble — Winnie Chang, Ara Heizel Alcantara Abraham, Peng Yi — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2023.
