State of Motion: Through Stranger Eyes

State of Motion: Through Stranger Eyes

Presented by the Asian Film Archive

Cinema is rife with strange encounters where films serve as records of collisions between people and places.

State of Motion 2017 (SOM17) delves into the history of Singapore cinema to explore the many film locations and the city state’s mutability as an actor. Different Singapore(s), alien yet recognisable, are uncovered through a selection of films that were shot amidst a transforming post-independent nation. Participants are taken to film locations featured in the selected films where an artwork responding to both the film and its site awaits.

Audiences are encouraged to not only look back, but to traverse through the many different imaginations of Singapore, as seen through stranger eyes.
