“I am going to tell you the truth.”
After hurting his lover, a young Singaporean man stands at the beginning of the rest of his life. Faced with an uncertain future after the end of a tumultuous and unusual relationship, he must return to his past and revisit the people he has loved and lost. In retracing the steps between what he knows and what he yearns to uncover, he must find a new path home – one that has not been forged.
In a world where things can change in a day, he must negotiate the price of love. Treading the thin line between protection and violence, beauty and pain, love and loss, The Concubine attempts to navigate the (im)possible labyrinth of trauma and abuse.
Will he find peace within himself while healing the inner child who has been forced to grow up?
