On the Red Dot: Family Mysteries

Producer/Director

Do you know who your ancestors are? How well do you know your family tree? Four personalities embark on a journey to unravel mysteries in their family histories. For radio presenter Daniel Martin, his individual identity is a symphony of ancestries spanning across multiple countries on his maternal and paternal sides of his family. But while he is acutely aware of his Eurasian descent, he knows little of the first white ancestor on his maternal side, who came to Asia and began Daniel's Eurasian lineage. Who is his first Caucasian ancestor and why did he choose to stay? Singer Inch Chua always knew she came from a stock of tough women. Her biggest role model is her grandmother, who, despite being abandoned as a child, raised a family of four. But there is one woman in the family that has remained a mystery - her biological great grandmother. What drove her to abandon her child and was her life better for it?
