My short films, LOVE SUICIDES and KINGYO will also play at the Singapore International Film Festival tomorrow (with LADYBIRD'S TEARS)

I mentioned in my previous post that the Thai-language short film that I wrote and produced, LADYBIRD'S TEARS, will be having its world premiere at the 23rd Singapore International Film Festival tomorrow (19th of April, 2010).

Aside from that, both the shorts that I wrote and directed, LOVE SUICIDES and KINGYO will also be part of their Asian Shorts program. It's quite an honour to have 3 shorts that I was involved in being presented at the film festival.

This marks the third time that LOVE SUICIDES and KINGYO, both loose adaptations of Yasunari Kawabata's short stories, are traveling together in a film festival, after last year's Cinemanila International Film Festival and China Mobile Film Festival (that's where LOVE SUICIDES picked up a Best Director award).

KINGYO was last screened at the Gulf International Film Festival in Dubai last week.

LOVE SUICIDES was screened in Rio De Jeneiro and Sau Paulo as part of the O Novo Cinema Da Malasia festival last month, and will also be part of the FLUXUS Film Festival (also in Brazil) later this month.
