SYNOPSIS: (Feature Film)
In Monster Brides, we will look at one woman’s experiences as she prepares for her wedding. In Singapore, the community of brides-to-be is an interesting social phenomenon. From status classifications to on-line support groups, each bride goes through the standard operational procedure of selecting gowns, stylists, flowers, hotels, restaurants,menus, etc. However, it is in these procedures that the true nature of each bride is revealed – number of own changes they must have, type of flowers, size of hotel, type of hair, etc. This pre-occupation with details and persistence in achieving the perfect wedding (which ironically no one can tell one apart from the other than the bride herself) is the main focus of this movie.
