Andy Teh
Andy Teh’s filmography is a pretty wild ride if you’re paying attention to what’s coming out of Southeast Asia lately. First up, there’s X-Change (2024)—that one’s got people buzzing because it messes around with reality in a way that gets under your skin. The story’s basically about folks who swap lives, but it’s not some cutesy body-swap comedy. Nah, it digs into identity, secrets, and how weirdly fragile our sense of self actually is. There’s this tension that never lets up, kind of claustrophobic and surreal at the same time. You finish it feeling like you need to call your mom and ask who you really are.
Then you’ve got First Wives (2025). This one’s a bit of a curveball because it throws together drama, comedy, and a little bit of that soap-opera flair. The plot circles around a group of women who are done being sidelined by their ex-husbands—and honestly, they’re way more interesting than the dudes they left behind. It’s sharp, sometimes savage, but also weirdly uplifting. The characters actually feel like people you might know, or at least want to grab drinks with after a rough day.
And let’s not forget Pendekar Awang: Darah Indera Gajah (2024). This is the historical epic in the bunch, all swords, honor, and sweeping landscapes. It follows Awang, a warrior with a serious chip on his shoulder, fighting for his people and, let’s be real, trying to sort his own mess out. There’s action, there’s drama, and there’s just enough heart to keep you rooting for him. Andy Teh’s choices here are gutsy and a bit unpredictable, which is honestly what makes his line-up so much fun to watch.
