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.
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:
