Two Is Enough
Music
In 1970s Singapore when families were pressured and incentivised to have no more than two children, a newly pregnant Teochew mother contemplates keeping her third child despite facing overwhelming financial constraints, social stigma and state disincentives.
Repossession
Music
50-year-old Jim (Gerald Chew, "Apprentice", Cannes Film Festival 2016 Un Certain Regard) loses his high-flying job in status-conscious Singapore, but his ego and pride compel him to hide this from his wife (Amy J Cheng, "Crazy Rich Asians") and daughter. His only confidante is his best friend (Sivakumar Palakrishnan, "A Yellow Bird", Cannes Film Festival 2016 Critics' Week). Desperately clinging onto the material symbols of his past success, he unlocks a hibernating malevolent force, with sinister roots in long-buried secrets. As his dream life crumbles around him, worlds collide, the lines between then and now become increasingly blurred, and Jim descends into a waking nightmare. REPOSSESSION is a bold, genre-bending film, with an ever-evolving, haunting soundscape from Golden Horse Award-winning composer Teo Wei Yong ("A Land Imagined").

Мэри и наоборот
Original Music Composer
Монтажный эксперимент сингапурца Нельсона Йео сталкивает образы восточного и западного миров. Главные героини хичкоковского триллера «Леди исчезает» и классического китайского фильма «Весна в городке» превращаются в абстрактную Мэри / Ма Ли, одна из которых снится другой. Многозначность этой парадоксальной конструкции начинается с названия: Мария — имя, в котором можно найтилюбые коннотации, от Евангелия до английского стишка-колыбельной.
The Death of the Master
Music
On 16 April 2016 a severe earthquake hit coastal Ecuador. José María Avilés’ first longer film is based on this national disaster, but at great distance from the collapsed buildings and buried loved ones. He shows how an unexpected event can suddenly modify all the rules of the game, even in the remote town of Angamarca – the location of the film – where the effects of the quake arrive as distant echoes of hostility in the natural environment.
Gaston Méliès and his Wandering Star Film Company
Music
In 1912-1913, movie pioneer Gaston Méliès, brother of Georges Méliès, did a ten month long trip around Asia-Pacific, shooting both documentaries and fictions on location in Polynesia, New Zealand, Australia, Java, Singapore, Cambodia and Japan. He wanted the “real” thing” he filmed, with the locals, being one of the first to give Polynesians, Maoris, Aborigines and Khmers a chance to appear on screen. His hybrid cinema dealt with questions of alterity, identity and representation.
