this is the greatest effort and it really compells me to commenting.
the story itself is part of SG becoming a nation which at the end of the day can never be anything other than personal. so this is history and, hopefully, also a future unending. i truly hope so and wish for the SIFF to continue in the very spirit captured here. when you watch this, you simply cannot doubt how an investment, any investment in the hearts and minds and the imagination of people, is essentially a human right. and it must not be let to die.
may many good folks carry this on and be inspired and enjoy.
since this is a festival, there is one simple thing everybody can do to honour it - and that is by attending, obviously.
i will, coming over from Germany especially, and i already know that it will be worth it! top
