Gravedigger’s Luck is the sequel to the award-winning Moving House. It documents the trials and tribulations of Ah Kow, the gravedigger whom Pin Pin met while shooting Moving House. The film takes a humorous look at the work of a gravedigger in Singapore. It follows him as he tries out multiple luck-enhancing methods to improve his luck which he believes has worn thin because of his job as a grave exhumer. Gravedigger’s Luck was the runner up for Best Documentary at the Asian TV Awards, and the runner up for Best Infotainment Programme.
It is part of a 6-part Discovery series, Afterlife, where Pin Pin was the series co-consultant.
