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.
