About Ah Ma
An elderly Chinese woman living alone in a village prepares for the Qing Ming festival. The grief of losing her husband parallels the pain of missing her grandson who had left to work in the city. Her daily routine navigates a transitional loop of immediate changes and immense loneliness.
Directed by Chew Boon Wai, Ah Ma leans on a strong ensemble — Pearlly Chua — 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 2024.
