STRANGER EYES by Yeo Siew Hua came out today in Singapore!

Despite living in close proximity, a sense of dislocation hangs over the inhabitants of the densely populated Singapore in Yeo Siew Hua’s STRANGER EYES. In a space where human connection is filtered through the multitude of screens - Indiewire writer Sophie Monks Kaufman identified that “it isn’t that there is no desire for intimacy; a stifled longing for exactly this kind of comfort is fed in; it is more that this world is designed to stymie and cut off the full bloom of this desire.”

The first film from Singapore to compete for the Golden Lion in Venice Film Festival’s 81 year history – contemplate the limitless yet alienating sense of connectedness in Singapore when you catch STRANGER EYES at The Projector.
