| Description |
Things are heating up in the oh-so-cool Singapore headquarters of Clearday(TM), a upstart player in the Asian skincare game. Sales of their new range - 'White Pearl' skin-whitening cream - are going through the roof, and the ambitious team of young women have their eyes to the sky. That is, until their new TV commercial is leaked online and starts going viral for all the wrong reasons. As the views climb, the mood in the office nosedives and the team scrambles to contain the fallout and save more than just their jobs in the process. |
