8 Oct – Despite some objection to the renaming of the Academy Awards' Foreign Language Film category to the new International Feature Film, this does not deter countries across the globe from submitting their representative films in hope of winning the coveted golden statue. Among the 93 nations who have submitted their entries for the category is Singapore, with the neo-noir mystery thriller "A Land Imagined". The film follows a sleepless police investigator who puts himself in the mind of a missing Chinese migrant, who is a worker at a Singapore land reclamation site, in order to find the man.
