SUMMARY:European Film Festival 2024
DESCRIPTION:A month-long festival\, a new venue in the heart of Singapore and new partnerships mark the 33rd edition of the European Film Festival (EUFF). \nPresented by the European Union (EU) Delegation to Singapore\, EUFF shines the spotlight on European cinema by bringing films to Singapore reflecting Europe’s creativity\, inclusivity\, and diversity. The EUFF runs at The Projector (Cineleisure) from 23rd April to 25thMay 2024.  With its new screening location\, the festival moves to the heart of Singapore\, making it more accessible to the general public. This year’s festival presents 24 films from 24 countries over a longer festival period\, reflecting on the variety of perspectives\, histories\, languages and cultures from across Europe. \nEUFF 2024 Opening Film: The Featured Country this year is Belgium and opens the festival with its film Here on 23rd April. Directed by critically acclaimed filmmaker Bas Devos\, this is a moving tale of fleeting encounters aided by hot soup and humble plant life. In suburban Brussels\, Stefan\, an unassuming Romanian construction worker prepares to leave for home. He clears out his fridge and cooks a pot of soulful borscht\, passing it on to fellow kindred spirits\, sowing love one bowl at a time. A chance encounter with bryologist Shuxiu blossoms into a friendship as she opens his eyes to the once-invisible growth of mosses that thrive in the city’s crevices. \nFestival Films: EUFF offers a range of movie genres including drama\, historical drama\, documentary\, musical\, comedy and family-friendly films from the following countries: Austria\, Belgium\, Czechia\, Denmark\, Estonia\, Finland\, France\, Germany\, Greece\, Hungary\, Ireland\, Italy\, Lithuania\, Luxembourg\, Malta\, Norway\, Poland\, Portugal\, Romania\, Spain\, Sweden\, Switzerland\, Turkey and Ukraine.

SUMMARY:Samsara – A Cine-Concert
DESCRIPTION:What is one willing to give up to fulfil their insatiable desires? \n  \nFollowing the internationally acclaimed Setan Jawa—which premiered in 2017 to a sold-out crowd at Esplanade—respected Indonesian director Garin Nugroho returns for the world premiere of Samsara\, a stunning cinematic experience that marries film with live music. \n  \nSamsara follows the story a man from an impoverished family who is rejected by the wealthy parents of the woman he loves. He strikes a bargain with the Monkey King\, performing a dark ritual to gain wealth but in the process\, curses his wife and child into suffering.  Rooted in Indonesian mysticism\, this is a universal narrative about the insatiable hunger to be what one is not\, and the boundaries one is prepared to breach to realise this. \n  \nLike its predecessor Setan Jawa\, Samsara is a “cine-concert” that draws from German black-and-white films from the 1920s as well as wayang kulit (traditional Indonesian shadow puppetry). While the former featured an evocative silent film accompanied by live gamelan music and a Western classical orchestra\, Samsara forgoes the orchestra for vibrant\, live electronic music. The production marries this electronic soundscape with traditional Balinese performance elements like the gamelan orchestra\, traditional dance\, masks and wayang kulit. The film and live performance stars two Asia-Pacific luminaries of the stage and screen\, Indonesian film actor Ario Bayu and Indonesian-Australian dancer Juliet Widyasari Burnett. \n  \nUnder the bold visionary eye of Garin Nugroho and the exceptional work of a powerhouse creative team\, Samsara promises to be a bold and memorable cinematic experience\, seamlessly bringing together the art forms\, nuances\, and traditions of Indonesia’s past and present. \n  \nProduction Credits\nLead Actors: Ario Bayu & Juliet Widyasari Burnett\nSupporting Actors: Gus Bang Sada\, Valentine Payen-Wicaksono\, Siko Setyanto\, I Wayan Wira Kusuma\, Aryani Willems & Cok Sawitri \n  \nDirector: Garin Nugroho\nMusic Composer: Wayan Sudirana & Gabber Modus Operandi\nMusicians: Gabber Modus Operandi & Gamelan Yuganada \n  \nA commission by Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay\nProduced by Cineria Films\, Garin Workshop & Lynx Films\nWith the support of Ministry of Culture\, Research and Technology Republic of Indonesia and Yayasan Puri Kauhan Ubud \n  \nProducer: Gita Fara & Aldo Swastia\nExecutive Producer: Ario Bayu & Rob O’Hare\nSupervising Producer: Jala Adolphus\nChoreographer: Ida Ayu Wayan Arya Satyani\nCinematographer: Batara Goempar\nCostume Designer: Retno Ratih Damayanti\nProduction Designer: Vida Sylvia\nStage Designer: Iskandar Loedin\nSound Recordist and Designer: Trisno\nEditor: Beck\nCo-producers: Rai Pendet\, Batara Goempar\nLine Producer: Ineke Bajalaras
