"By the Dawn's Early Rise" (30 mins)

"By the Dawn's Early Rise" was Djinn's first short film which won him the best short film award at the FIPRESCI adjudicated 1998 Singapore International Film Festival Silver Screen Awards.

Since then it has also participated in the Los Angeles International Asian Film Festival as well as been picked up for cable distribution in the USA, on the International Film Channel.

"By the Dawn's Early Rise" was made for a mere US$5K and contrary to other short film experience, made a profit!
