6th Singapore Short Film Festival August 27, 2010

The 6th Singapore Short Film Festival is back! Launched in 2001 by The Substation Moving Images, the festival aims to champion the short film format, increase its profile and encourage Singapore filmmakers to expand their horizons through exposure to international and Southeast Asian shorts.

This year's highlights include Young Love, a collection of films exploring the butterflies in the stomach to the gut wrenching anguish of heartbreak; Horizons, films transcending the usual borders of space, nature and time; and The Kids Aren’t Alright, films that speak of the psyche behind children, adolescents and youths of today. Also included is the S-Express traveling short film series, featuring works by Asian film talents from around the region. Featuring S-Express Singapore, S-Express Thailand, curated by Sanchai Cotirosseranee (Thai Short Film and Video Festival) and S-Express Philippines, curated by Francis Cruz, Dodo Dayao, Richard Bolisay (curators / film bloggers). The Philippines segment will be paying tribute to the late Alexis Tioseco, previous S-Express Philippines curator, and his partner Nika Bohinc, who passed away last year.
