This year, the Singapore International Film Festival (SIFF) celebrates 21 years as a major event on the Singapore Arts calendar.

Turning twenty one has been traditionally regarded as a coming of age and with film, as it is the age one can view any film available in Singapore. At SIFF, we are commemorating this rite of passage with rejuvenation by introducing a new generation into our Organising team.

We are also proud and honoured to have the Australian High Commissioner, Mr Miles Kupa as our patron. In the festival this year, we will commemorate the recent signing of the Singapore Australia Film Co-Production Agreement with a slate of movies in the Australian Focus segment of the Festival.

New sponsors have come on board, led by our presenting sponsor, Citibank and Citicorp, one of Singapore and the world’s leading banks. In addition, The National Museum and Motorola are both valued partners with the Festival, while DHL is again our official Logistics provider. To them, we are extremely grateful and we look forward to a mutually beneficial relationship in the years ahead.

In keeping with our revitalisation efforts, we have an exciting line up of films including a Singapore Panorama segment with over 10 new feature films, 55 years of Vietnamese cinema and an enhanced Silver Screen Awards, our traditional venues, Shaw Bros Lido, National Museum of Singapore, the Substation and Goethe Institute, have been expanded with the introduction of the Republic Polytechnic and Sinema @ Old School to increase our audience base.

We trust you will enjoy this year’s Festival this year, and look forward to your continued support.
