The Movie:

Which girl does not dream of meeting "The One"? Chang Li-Ann (Wong Li Lin), a delightful dreamer, strongly believes in meeting the love of her life. And on that fateful day of February 29, she finds him in Jeremy Lee (Ananda Everingham). She puts her faith in an obscure Irish leap year tradition that states a woman has the right to ask anything of a man on this day and he cannot refuse her. Thus begins a love story spanning 20 years across the globe, where we witness Li-Ann's joy, pain,longing and hope.

The Catch:

Shot in Singapore and Canada, this project won the Busan Film Commission

Award in 2006's Pusan Promotion Plan. Adapted from a novella by Singapore's most recognized writers, Dr. Catherine Um, The Leap Years aims to capture the fascinating sensibilities and the essence of life in contemporary Singapore.
