Singapore Film Festival returns to capital after 2 years

NEW DELHI: It is good news for world cinema lovers as the much-loved Singapore Film Festival will be making its return to the capital after a gap of two years, starting February 21.

The three-day festival, now in its fourth edition, will take place here at the Siri Fort auditorium. It will screen feature and short films — three each — followed by discussions and talks between filmmakers and film critics.

Organised by the Singapore High Commission, it will open with Singaporean filmmaker Abbas Akbar’s “Chennai 2 Singapore”. The film is about an Indian filmmaker who travels all the way to Singapore in search for investors who would finance his movie.
