SGIFF Executive Director, Wahhyuni A. Hadi said the Vietnamese films joining the festival promise to introduce audiences in the region, particularly in Singapore, to new stories on Vietnam. She also hoped to visit Vietnam to learn more about the country and its people and establish a partnership within the film industry between the two countries.
As the longest-running international film platform in Southeast Asia, SGIFF is known for its dynamic film programming and commitment to the development of a vibrant local film culture.
