The Helper Documentary is proud to feature and support The Unsung Heroes – a choir consisting of domestic helpers from all over Hong Kong, set up by Peak School Music teacher, Jane Engelmann.
I Wish I Could Kiss You Goodnight, one of the featured songs performed by the choir at Clockenflap 2015, was an original song composed especially for the choir by J. Engelmann in honour of the sacrifice many of them have made in leaving their loved ones behind in order to support their families. These women are often highly intelligent, talented,educated, qualified professionals (teachers, bankers, nurses) yet are working as ‘maids’ in Hong Kong and are often treated as no more than that. They are the driving force of two countries and yet their efforts and sacrifices are often taken for granted.
