First Look at Sandiwara, Starring Michelle Yeoh as Five Characters, Set in a Malaysian Night Market, Premiering at Berlin Film Festival

-

English Version | 中文版本


A first look has been released for Sandiwara, a new short film directed by Sean Baker, starring Michelle Yeoh in five different roles.

The film is set in a Malaysian night market, with the story unfolding entirely within the same active public space. Crowded walkways, food stalls, and constant foot traffic form the backdrop as different characters move through the environment.

Michelle Yeoh appears as five separate characters, each navigating the night market setting in different ways. The location remains consistent throughout the film, serving as the shared space where these characters exist and intersect.

Sandiwara is scheduled to premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival. The project marks a new collaboration between Sean Baker and Michelle Yeoh.

At the time of release, details on runtime and wider distribution have not been announced.

McDonald’s Nuggets With Caviar? Not a New Menu Item.

-
Image
English Version | 中文版本 At first glance, it looks like McDonald’s has done something unexpected with Chicken McNuggets. But McDonald's has not added caviar to its menu. There is no in-store availability, no new product rollout, and no plan to make this pairing part of regular dining. What McDonald’s released instead is a one-time, online-only giveaway , tied to Valentine’s Day in the US. The McNugget Caviar Kit appeared briefly through a dedicated campaign drop. Quantities were limited, and once the giveaway window closed, the kit was gone. The contents were straightforward: Chicken McNuggets, caviar, crème fraîche, a serving spoon, and a McDonald’s Arch Card. The caviar was supplied by Paramount Caviar . This combination didn’t come out of nowhere. Nuggets paired with caviar have circulated online for years, mostly as a visual contrast rather than a serious eating suggestion. The appeal has always been in the image — familiar fast food placed next to a symbol of luxury. ...

7-Eleven Taiwan Turns a Donut Into a Fried Chicken Burger

Image
English Version | 中文版本 7-Eleven Taiwan has introduced a new hot food item that replaces a standard burger bun with a donut. The product uses Mister Donut’s Pon de Ring as the outer layer, turning the familiar ring-shaped donut into a functional bun. Inside is a Cajun-style fried chicken patty, paired with mayonnaise and a honey-flavored sauce. The format is easy to understand at a glance: a sweet donut structure used to carry a savory filling. According to official hot food listings, the item is priced at NT$119 . Local food media report that it is a limited regional release , mainly available in the greater Taipei area. As with many short-run convenience store items, actual availability depends on individual stores. The donut component comes from Mister Donut Taiwan , which is best known in Taiwan for the Pon de Ring’s chewy, mochi-like texture. In this case, the donut shifts from a dessert role to a structural one, while keeping its recognizable shape and texture. This type of rel...
