Berlin Film Festival Adventures

In boomtown beijing, news on February 7, 2008 at 1:40 am

I will be attending the Berlin Film Festival 2008 (7th — 17th February 2008) There are two big reasons why I am going.

Invisible City, a film I worked on, is screening in the Forum section of the Berlinale.

I will also take the opportunity to market and promote my own film about the Beijing Olympics, Boomtown Beijing at the Festival and the European Film Market.

With thousands of journalists and film makers attending, I am sure Berlin will be a zoo. But hopefully, it’d also be a lot of fun.

Wish me luck!

Invisible City at Berlin Film Festival

In filmmaking, news on January 31, 2008 at 11:41 am

Today, I received an email request from my friend, Singaporean film maker Tan Pin Pin:

"Hi Siok, if its convenient, can you let Web 2.0 know  to watch or look out for Invisible City  in Berlin?"

Those were her exact words.:)

So hear ye, Web 2.0 folks out there, look out for this Singapore documentary film at   one of the most prestigious film festivals in the world

Invisible City is a documentary about documenteurs.  The film conveys  the fragility of histories  stitched together by  a patchwork of memories and artefacts.

 You can watch the trailer of the film here:
