Reflect / Refract: Essays On Photography In Singapore features eight essays by writers and curators Lee Weng Choy, Justin Loke, Charmaine Toh, Yeo Wei Wei and Bridget Tracy Tan among others. The series aims to compile and put forward writings on photography over a range of concerns, such as the politics of representation, visual performativity and fiction, documentation and documentary.
In this four-part documentary series, sixteen different personalities from four Asian countries share how they challenge conventional norms through their lifestyles and alternative forms of self-expression. In Thailand, three ladyboys depict the tough lives that the country’s marginalised transgendered population leads, while young Taiwanese are moving away from the genteel listening habits of earlier generations, embracing corpse paint, black leather and metal music. In India, young women are expressing themselves by making documentaries about their lives, while in Japan, a new generation of enthusiastic comic book fans are changing the face of stoic Japanese society through outrageous Cosplay.

Fireflies (Gachliliyot) is the story of Gili, who ventures out in search of his brother, Giora, who remained forever 19 after disappearing in the Yom Kippur War. Gili’s story unfolds at different points of his life, as he continues to seek answers to his brother’s disappearance through his travels.
This is also the story of Giora, who will forever remain 19. Through interviews with his friends and army commanders who remember him, laugh and cry at the thought of him, the story is told and questions arise. How is it possible that a tank could vanish without a trace? How can one friend insist he saw Giora only days after the army insists his tank was hit? And what exactly happened out there?

The services of Taiwanese matchmaker Hellen Chen are in high demand, where people struggle to find love and companionship in a society with one of the highest rates of divorce in Asia. Comedic and tragic in turns, Wuna Wu’s realist documentary follows the interactions of several couples as they come to terms with their decision to get married or tackle problems within their marriage.
