A coffeetable book of photography, documenting Hong Kong storefronts could be unique. Hong Kong is the biggest small city in the world, with loads of tiny, interesting little shops, filled with anything from radio-controlled helicopters to turtle-filled fishtanks, standing shoulder to shoulder to compete for attention. Their shopfronts are often complex, tiny and well lit.

There are around 250 000 filipina women working in Hong Kong as domestic helpers. They have become integral to the fabric of this society. There is a n opportunity for a film documentary about their lives, the challenges they face (in some cases cruel and impossible living circumstances) and eventually a look at how their absence from home affects the Philippines.
