- Charis, a single working mother is suddenly brought into turmoil when she discovers that her domestic helper, Maria is pregnant. The situation is further complicated when Maria reveals that she was raped, leaving Charis in a moral dilemma. Weighing between her obligations as an employer, and both her and Maria’s personal interests, should Charis report the rape to the police and send Maria back because of the pregnancy?

The girl playing the pregnant maid is so sweet & pretty. She is also patient and has experience dealing with kids because she have younger siblings at home. When she was raped, I was heartbroken for her that I instantly cried. Luckily, her employer is also kind and gave her the support & assistance needed. 😢😢😢This is my first time watching and I immediately subscribe. Looking forward to more wonderful and inspiring videos.
If I'm not mistaken she's from Philippines and also an artist there, she also got 1 movie about maid also but horror it's also set up at Singapore
@@emeliajojo1344 In Singapore, some Filipina maids have affairs with their male employees.
@@jackjackyphantom8854 yes true
@@sulismardya9986 Filipina girls are very hot and irresistible.
why is no one talking about how the lady playing the domestic helper is so prettyyy
YESSS
Cassandra Spykerman. Queen!
uumm?? I've ran into a lot of cute domestic helpers over the years its almost a given.
It’s important to have a good employer & an employer is lucky if they hire a good helper :)
thats true, I'am agree
I can't agree more!
Mom: You crying ah?
Me: No, just changi jewel at my eyes
HAHAHA

instead of arguing that she should have known the consequences of getting drunk, we should instead focus on protecting our domestic helpers from situations like these. no one expects nor should expect to be sexually assaulted especially domestic helpers. they came here for new opportunities and a way to a better life. they are as human as we are but singapore's society treats them otherwise. it's time for a paradigm shift
My old maid was named Maria too. She raised me from when I was an infant. I miss her so much.
I hate when people say "You're family now." Then the first serious road bump we hit and they're like "You're out of here!"
It cheapens what the word family means.
Agree 👍😌
Always appreciate these domestic helpers and the coronavirus workers. They are always there to take care of you and also there to save everyone’s lives.
Statement from film director, Sabrina Poon:
As Singaporeans, we like to believe ourselves as a society that is tolerant and gracious. But we are also pragmatic, sometimes to a fault that often makes our relationships with people appear merely transactional. Alas, we can still be quick to judge and measure people’s worth based on the convenience they bring us.
This reality is easily reflected when we engage domestic helpers. Do we really consider them as family, or is it just a loose and fragile term that is easily jeopardised when you consider certain lines crossed? Would it matter if you realised that they are a victim after all?
“Eggshell” tells the story of a single mother who is caught in a dilemma after discovering that her domestic helper pregnant. The dilemma is further complicated when she learns that her helper is a victim. Now, her decisions have gone beyond her obligations as an employer, and into something more personal - from woman to woman, she relates to the seriousness of the situation that should be handled with much sensitivity and deliberation.
The title “Eggshell"" is the embodiment of all three combined;
The idea that most helpers’ relationships with their employers feel like treading on eggshells, the theme of fragility and the malleable concept of “family”, and the delicacy of situations that are relatable and gender-centric to women.
This short film is not an easy piece. It is not a female empowerment piece either.
In “Eggshell”, I hope to offer a window into the perspective of the female characters as they arrive at an unspoken mutual understanding. That all things considered, some relationships are not just black and white.
Very interesting & educational story & some house helpers are victim of Rape & assault, some of us treat them as garbage & Rubbish, while they come from very far away to work for us, but we treat them so badly.
Beautiful
dum
It's so touching 😥,
We all Woman must take care ourselves , expecially when we work overseas . No one knows outside there .
This is so very sad on so many levels. I have read some of the comments below and it appears from the reactions that what transpired went over most people's heads. The mother is keenly aware of Maria's sensitivity towards Jared and the the special relationship and connection she has built with her autistic son. In the end she did not doubt Maria's story of rape for even 1 second and she supported her by sending her away. What is unclear is whether she sent her away to have the baby or to have an abortion. That is how short stories work. The leave gaps that make you think about what you just watched.
Even if she got pregnant with her boyfriend if there was, then other things should be evaluated as she is indeed a a nice person and you trust her. She can't be labelled as a bad person for having a relationship at 23 or because she is a maid. Of course, employer has the rights to send her away for some time and then come back for the sake of her kid. Trust is the key here as usual.
My experience in Singapore, my own boss always go club and drunk on Saturday night with his wife. One night he come to my room, touched me , kissing n licking my ear. In room I sleep with 4 kids. I am scared n wake up, he said sorry n told me that he think I am his son. Then in the morning I talk about this to his sister in law. She ask me to report police, I am really scared then I choose to go back home. Day after this problem, his mother in law send me to airport at 4 AM. Now I am working in HK, my 5th contract with one employer.
A horrible excuse that he made 🤢🤮. Why would he do that to his son anyways.
You should still report him.he was Wrong!
Madam: "I've already made all the arrangements"
Me: "Ermm . . . yeah . . . But ma'am, you forgot to arrange my meeting with the piece of sh*t so I can put him down"
She's a good employer, hope more boss are like her❤️
Moral of the story, the helper have got a wrong company, wrong company brings wrong path.employer is no 1.
this vid is so intresting and sad at the same time its sad to the point where i can start crying
Can anyone tell me where did she finally go?
Karen Tan Bee Lin and Cassandra Spykermann, great actress 👍🏼. Hope we can see you soon in the next video.
why all episodes so touching....😢
fantastic vids!!
The ending was very up in the air. What was the meaning of the ending? Are they implying that she will go to the clinic in her own country for a procedure? 🤔
So inspiring story
I WANT A PART 2
The girls when speaking their language, it sounded like my native language 😆😆
THIS SHOULD BE ON TV! LOVE IT!
I seen jared is disability like autisum. So he got something in different way than other normal kids.
She (the maid) act as a doctor in Kin. She is a good actress.
Awesome! Fantastic ! Go on .
Love from Bangladesh. 💝💖💗💓💞💕💟❣❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍
Sorry what was the ending ?? Maria is going back to her country to delivered the baby and comeback to singapore after delivery, is that correct ??
I dunno.. It's kinda confusing
I think they will abort the baby
It's so wrong to send her away instead of seeking justice .
Kassandra spykerman, You are a such real actor, I love ur acting. Go ahead 🖤
A good one👌
Dude why jared be getting so worked up over a spoon lmao
Maybe. Just maybe Jared is autistic in this short film. Kids (even adults) with autism tend to hv obsessions over objects or routines. Any slight change, they may throw a tantrum. One of my twin is autistic, and she had the very same obsession; spoon. A tea spoon more exact. She wouldn't eat with anything else except with that particular spoon. We even had to bring the spoon out when we go out for meals. So yeah, the way Jared acts, it does seem that he is a character who is autistic. Hope that explains :)
@@bellefianti5426 Thanks for the context Belle Fianti! You hit the nail there about the special needs that Jared has and how Charis is indebted to Maria for the care she has shown. Adds an extra dimension to this dilemma!
Did they make a second one for follow up?
So emotional .. .
I can’t say anything.thank u so much make surch nice video
Is there a part 2?
What a touches short movie i ever watch
I have had maids from Bangal, india, Nepal, Indonesia and the Philippines. I'd say so far Indonesia and Philippines are the best they are the ones who actually come to work not to become like the inherentiors of the house. but I.also also heard many horror stories about theses maids so I think it depends on the person. mostly it is now the employer treats the helper
What do you mean by inheritors of the house? I’m just confused by what you mean if you don’t mind me asking since all of my maids were from Philippines >.
I hope in singapore have good employer like in this movie..1001😊😊🙃🙃🙃
I'm not crying. I am not!!!!
It's okay, we totally did!
i cried :(
God bless you mom😫😫😫
This girl is a versatile singaporean actor
Lanjutan mana nih
😭😭😭😭 i cry
So sad 😭 😢 😭
super ....... anyone know her name
What happened at the end?
Come because tik tok,,
same
Same
SAMEEE
so what ended up happening? did she go away to have the baby ?
Always know what had happend first.and u should not judge at first.
I wish every 1 was that kind to there maids or helpers to every1 Charis treated Maria liker own daughter
The food they having is making me hungry
Can you teach online how to cook non poison foods
why did she have to leave ?
Lucky employer verry good
Why did the maid get sent back instead of going to the police report? (i know she will come back again but why)
I think they both know if they come to the police, they don't have enough evidence & no witness of the actual event, the case could be dismissed and
and the government could just simply deport Maria and never see her again. Charis knows that Maria wanted to stay, she thinks the best way to do it is to abort the baby quietly then come back when it's done.
I would help her
Where Cassandra Spykerman is from??
busorah street im in love
The helper not supposed to blow the food... Just wait till a bit cold down..
Oh buts that's how even parents do in Asia
IDK if it is just me, but Jared kind of looks like Tam from the other vid
Yup,he acted as Tam
Yeah he is Tam
God damn, when she said he touched her, I shed a tear without even noticing.
I am sorry but I didnt u.understand what happened at last
I don’t get the ending
very nice employer
I'm crying 😭 ya Allah
Employer is good

I dont know what to say about every video in viddsee. Hang story line.. 😅 police report? Abortion? Send back home? Hmmm,. People will be like.. nah. Terrible story line with no endings.
I have experience before 2 years working in Singapore but i never drink alcohol i thinking this maids have mistake so if that maids have manner maybe that Will never happen
Dont victim blame
@@jan-mg5ug so who is must to blame 🤔
@@jan-mg5ug agree with you. It's not excuse for a man to rape a woman just bcs she had a drink. It's upsetting how many people focus on the story in wrong way.
@@shedian5453 why not blame the rapist?
@@shedian5453 In my opinion, the victim can be wrong too. I can't disagree with that, because sometimes people do things intentionally even if they know the risk of attracting this kind of attention. For example, the one I personally know the story is, they know very well the area is dangerous because serial rapist news, and they still went to the area for "test of courage" even when ppl told them not to. So the victim is 'also' wrong on tht part. But I emphasize on 'also' because no matter what the situation is, the rapist is always wrong. Just like robbing something is always wrong, no matter if the house has weak/strong security. So why not blame the rapist, who is clearly always in the wrong no matter what the situation is?
Your fault as you get yourself and your stupid friend left you alone. A good will not leave alone like that.
Dont victim blame
She is an adult, should know what can do or not,being drunk that way means u dont respect not care about ur safety, dont u think about the risk?
Instead, shouldn't the man be more respectful? Why cant an adult go out and get drunk, its part of having fun isn't it? The man was in the wrong smh
Why would you blame the victim
Being unconscious doesnt mean she deserves to be rapped. Besides, Jared's boss is also an adult. He should have control his penis and not raping someone. How can ppl like u always look for the victim's mistake and blame them? It was easy: everyone should NOT rape.
