Local Film Showcase: THE OBS: A SINGAPORE STORY

Yeo Siew Hua’s THE OBS: A SINGAPORE STORY is an ambitious documentation of one of Singapore’s most important and influential bands, The Observatory. Tracing the footsteps of the group’s core members, the film pits personal history against the political by exploring the complex relationship that the state has had with local music and sub-culture over the years. THE OBS is tale of uncompromising passion, of culture and of belonging, and the costs—and invaluable rewards—of being creative. The screening will be preceded by the short film, WORMHOLE by Yeo Siew Hua & Nelson Yeo This series of the Local Film Showcase is co-presented by The Projector and 13 Little Pictures. *There will be a post-screening Q&A with the director.
