The Tree is a 2001 Singaporean supernatural-mystery drama film directed by Daisy Chan, starring Zoe Tay, Francis Ng, Phyllis Quek, Tse Kwan Ho and Deng Mao Hui. Produced by Mediacorp Raintree Pictures,[1] the film was shot entirely in Singapore over 28 days[2] with a production budget of S$1.1 million.[3] It was released in Singapore cinemas on 26 April 2001.[2]

Plot

Lin Zixiong (Zheng Geping) dies after being hit by a car, and the only witness seems to be his stepson "Popiah" (Deng Mao Hui), a quiet young boy with no friends besides a gigantic tree. Police investigator Jiang Liangxing (Phyllis Quek) becomes convinced the driver was Lin's wife Guo Meifeng (Zoe Tay), whose first husband Xie Wenguang (Tse Kwan-ho) disappeared 5 years ago. Meanwhile, Jiang's boyfriend and pathologist Wu Chongzhe (Francis Ng) discovers a mysterious fungus in Lin's heart. He also befriends Popiah and learns that Lin had sexually abused him. Perhaps the answer to everything lies in the gigantic tree...

Cast

  • Deng Maohui as Xie Qingyu, a child nicknamed "Popiah"
  • Zoe Tay as Guo Meifeng, Popiah's mother
  • Francis Ng as Wu Chongzhe, a forensic pathologist
  • Phyllis Quek as Jiang Liangxing, Wu Chongzhe's girlfriend and a police superintendent
  • Lau Siu-ming as Wu Mingwei, Wu Chongzhe's father

Reception

Soh Yun-Huei gave the film 1/2 out of 4 stars, writing the film meant to blend "suspense, melodrama and romance together, but the end results are lumpy and unsatisfying".[4]
