Singapore Panorama: Short Film Programme 2 (SGIFF)

A showcase of 6 local short films. In "My Human", a fan ruminates on its existence, that of a man who collects sounds from objects. In "Conversations with a Koel Bird", a filmmaker abroad phones his brother and chats about the Asian koel, whose early-morning and evening calls are a feature of Singapore`s soundscape. In "SMRT Piece", a couple discuss public transportation, sketching, seeing and being seen as they are driving abroad. In "Seance of the Past", a man spends most of his life mourning the things he lost, unable to move on. He frequents a medium and embarks on a spiritual journey where he lingers among his past lives. In "Duka Lara", a worker on a floating fish farm nurses his sorrow and his loneliness manifests a sea spirit who challenges his self-pity. And finally in "The Story of Me Missing Them", a filmmaker shares his journey of self-discovery while living abroad, far from his family.
