Martyn See's
documentary disqualified by film festival Singapore
Democrats 14 Feb 08
The short film Nation
Builders produced
by Mr Martyn See (maker of Singapore
Rebel and
Zahari's
17 Years)
was rejected by the Singapore International Film Festival because
it "failed to meet its entry requirements."
The
film shows scenes of Singapore's elderly poor as the go about
their day-to-day struggles to eke out a living. His two previous
films mentioned above were banned by the Government.
Mr
See will submit Nation
Builders to
the Board of Film Censors so that it can be screened publicly.
Another film Speakers Cornered is also with the Board but its
fate is still unknown. Fans shouldn't hold their breaths.
