We’re pleased to share that the Singapore International Film Festival (SGIFF) returns for its 32nd edition this year. Happening from 25 November to 5 December 2021 in theatres-only, SGIFF will be presenting a strong array of over 100 films by film makers from 40 countries that informs, transforms, and inspires.
A champion of Southeast Asian independent cinema, this year’s Festival will present a diverse, inclusive range of over 100 films by filmmakers from all over the world.
