SNAKESKIN with Talk
TRT: 1:45
April 9: 7:30 PM
Los Otros co-presents with UP Film Institute a free screening of Daniel Hui’s critically-acclaimed second film, SNAKESKIN (2014), followed by a Q&A with the filmmaker.

“A striking vérité snapshot of present-day Singapore that doubles as a semi-mystical cinematic incantation conjuring ghosts from the country’s history, Daniel Hui’s SNAKESKIN ingeniously compresses past, present, and future. In 2066, the lone survivor of a cult projects footage shot by his divine leader, who claimed to be the reincarnation of Stamford Raffles, the British statesman who founded Singapore. Both living and dead subjects candidly reminisce about love, race, revolution, and the Malay film industry as muted images from 2014 of the city-state’s streets and harbors—key locations of the cult’s future founding—flash by.”—Film Society of Lincoln Center

The screening will be held on April 9, 2019, 7:30 PM, at the UPFI Film Center Videotheque, 2F Ishmael Bernal Gallery, UPFI Film Center, Osmeña Ave, University of the Philippines at Diliman, Quezon City.

This event is in partnership with Loyola Film Circle, 24 Frames – CIIT Video and Film Organization, Film Aficionados Circle, Ateneo Student Exchange Council, The Benildean FilmWorks, U.P. Cineastes’ Studio, and the Cinema as Art Movement.

Admission is FREE and open to the public. First come first serve. Seats are limited.
