Local Films on International Stage
i got excited when i saw the Channel News Asia's headlines today: 2 Local Films Selected at Pusan Film Festival. Royston Tan's "4:30" and Kelvin Tong's "Love Story" will be featured! the section at PFF will showcase 39 films from 14 countries and highlight the diverse styles and subjects of the works of both established Asian masters and young directors. how cool! wow!

i'm happy because singapore is increasingly producing design and artsy talents. perhaps i haven't been aware of it previously. however, with the Singapore Biennale 2006 and the Arts Fes and the WOMAD lately, i just feel spiritually soaked in art. i may have fallen in love with my job. or maybe i have fallen deeply in love with art. but it makes me feel simply 'wow' to learn that local art & design works are increasingly recognised and shown at Asian & International stage.

for Mr Filmmaker, it's passion that drives him to international stage. go go go...i'm sure he will make it big one day, just like his Seniors & predecessors.
