Despite the Kampong nostalgic style seen in the recent trailers, Fighting Spiders is actually a lot deeper and darker. Imagine being in an environment filled with corrupted police, gangsters, sleazy alleys, drugs, murders and hookers while trying to fight for your dreams, love and family. I think you get the idea...
Here's a brief introduction taken from a recent interview with KOOL Blogazine -
Fighting Spiders is....
an ENGLISH period drama set in the 1960s Singapore that tells the coming of age story of 2 brothers. Its a fast moving, emotionally packed 13 Ep. series that has never been attempted before on the SINGAPORE tube. It has the elements of sex, drugs and secret societies and has been touted as theSINGAPORE English channel, CHANNEL 5's blockbuster of the year and has gotten the TV industry buzzing with excitement since the release of its TEASER this January.
My Character Tony Lee...
is a quick-tempered and rebellious 22-year old amateur boxer from a broken family. In the process of coming to terms with his sacrifices, he becomes a victim of circumstances. TONY made many mistakes that brought about dire consequences ....
If you think local TV is boring, I promise you Fighting Spiders will change your mind. FS's characters are emotionally layered and motivated, our cast fresh and hungry, our crew desperate to make a difference, our sets detailed and gorgeous and the story clever and sincere.
Watch it.
