APM A family torn apart by the unsolved murder of their young daughter tries to keep living day to day in “One Fine Day,” a Malaysian drama from director Tan Seng Kiat with Asian film icon Sylvia Chang aboard as executive producer.
The project is part of the Asian Project Market, which runs within the Busan International Film Festival’s Asian Contents & Film Market (ACFM).
After their nine-year-old girl is sexually assaulted and killed, a family of four becomes three. With the case still open, the father fixates on tracking down the killer, the mother seeks solace in religion and their teenage son is weighed down by an untruth he has kept to himself. As life carries on around them, each grieves in their own way, and their sorrow pulls them apart even as they cling to what is left of the family. The filmmakers bill it as a film less about cracking a murder than about the ordinary days that come after a devastating loss.
