INVISIBLE CITY (2007)
60 min / Documentary / Singapore
Director: Tan Pin Pin
[English, Japanese & Mandarin with English & Mandarin subtitles]

Synopsis:
Invisible City chronicles the ways people attempt to leave a mark before they and their histories disappear. From an avid amateur film director trying to preserve his decaying trove of Singapore footage to an intrepid Japanese journalist hunting down Singaporean war veterans, Tan Pin Pin draws out doubts, hopes and the ordinary moments of these protagonists who attempt immortality. Through their footage and photos rarely seen until now, we begin to perceive faint silhouettes of a City that could have been.
