DIRECTOR’S BIO

Khoo Eng Yow recently completed his first feature length film (narrative), THE BIRD HOUSE, which he produced, co-wrote, directed and edited. From Taiping, Malaysia and an engineer by training, his interest in still photography led him to his full time profession as an editor. Having edited other film makers’ works in recent years, Eng Yow started making his own from 2002. He enjoys the freedom of form and style in independent filmmaking. The gritty real lives are always evident in his films as seen in his award winning short film Railway Steps and docu-drama Ah Kew the Digger.

Eng Yow is currently an editor and independent filmmaker based in Kuala Lumpur.
