Synopsis of Wind: What are we as humans without and with nature? What is nature's role in our lives, especially for us urban dwellers? This short film tackles that question as two urbanites rush off to a place during their break from work. Synopsis of The Last Lap: JEAN has a dream, which is to go to a sports school and become a professional athlete. However, life is not as smooth-sailing as she is thrust into a class of non-athletes and has to struggle against the flow of a rigid and academic-driven society. In her attempt to pursue the unconventional, JEAN has one last lap to break through- her inner state of mind. Synopsis of Definition: Like the most of us, ALVIN is constantly searching for the ever-so-elusive meaning of life. However, unlike the most of us, he has his eccentric and worldly-wise (also easily mistaken to be as loopy as a rollercoaster ride) best friend SIMON to help him in his quest to find the true value of the things most coveted by everyone - power, money and love. Join ALVIN as he unwittingly embarks on a wacky journey of self-discovery (where he learns of things he would rather not know), experiences mixed emotions (of sadness and guilt), and ultimately unravels the mystery that surrounds the answer which he seeks, SIMON's bizarre behaviour, and...good oral hygiene. There will be a sharing session after the screening by the cast and crew of the films. |

Lai Weijie, 2005 Singapore , an unspecified time. John, an introverted young man, wakes up the day after his breakup with his girlfriend May. He struggles with a sense of detachment, grappling with this new reality he faces. His battle to come to terms with his loss leads him to recall the times shared with May, and appreciate their newfound significance. Slipper Story
Low Beng Kheng, 2005 Just how attached are we to our material possessions? How much of our lives are spent worrying over material things and how much is spent living in the present? Follow one fellow hostel tenant through a day in his life, his encounters with his fellow friends and family. A day in the life of a student living in Singapore, from a different perspective. Friday Morning
Lim Jiaxuan Gillian, 2005 An entertainer-wannabe is possessed by her conscience-spirit one comfy, quiet Friday morning. She revives her long lost dream and dances to Rosemary Clooney’s Mambo Italiano in a kopitiam. Do what you like. Be what you dream. Have fun. It’s a Friday morning.
Hedgehog’s Complex Song Yizhuang, 2005 A darkly comical look at the lives of a group of neighbours in a university dormitory. The relationship between the four residents of Block 8 is polite, and despite being proximally close is somewhat superficial – yet highly functional. Meanwhile, behind those doors which shut each other out, each resident faces a turning point in their relationship with someone else who is emotionally close to them – with painful results. **** For more information, contact me via yingzz[at]gmail.com or 91474270 Regards, |
