About this listen

We are fortunate to have Producer, Winnie Cheung and actress, Celia Au on the show to discuss their short film, Last Call which premiered at the 2025 SXSW Midnight Short Program. This short fantasy thriller takes you on the psychological journey of a traumatized motorcyclist who daydreams about a sultry serpent woman and is haunted by her enchanting voice.

Winnie’s credits include being a co-producer on the SXSW Audience Award Winner “Woodlands Dark and Days Bewitched: A History of Folk Horror” in 2021, and has won several awards at Sundance and more. Inspired by David Cronenberg’s body horror, American erotic thrillers, and Eastern fantasy films - LAST CALL reflects Winnie’s diasporic identity - a dreamlike blend of the ancestral East, and the rebellious West. Celia Au who previously starred in Wu Assassins and Lodge 49, brings Winnie’s vision to life in this story’s discovery of profound revelation.


We talk about:

  • Integrating and displaying complex emotions in film
  • Ways to deal with internal conflicts
  • How Breath work, mental visualization, and Active Listening are key to facilitating a productive and safe work environment
  • Storytelling as a powerful way to positively change the world.
