Wanted to watch some short films during the Singapore International Film Festival, so I picked the following 10 films as a bundle.
- Singapore Films: "New Born", "Here is Not There", "Rocketship", "Nursery Rhymes"
- Animation: "Sexy Sushi", "Water Melon Please"
- Video Essays: "Her Five Lives", "Casting a Spell to Alter Reality"
- Asian Films: "Judy Free", "Sunrise in My Mind"
Liked the great acting by the female lead in "New Born", the dramatic twist in "Here is Not There", the little boy's efforts to bring the family together in "Rocketship" and the nice songs in "Nursery Rhymes".
Both "Sexy Sushi" and "Water Melon Please" were a little abstract and touched on some existential issues.
Learnt about the history of Uzbek films in "Her Five Lives" and appreciated Hou Hsiao Hsien's films better with "Casting a Spell to Alter Reality".
Liked the special effect to make the father figure fuzzy in "Judy Free" and the chit chat in "Sunrise in My Mind".
