SGIFF’s forum for snarky assumptions and inconvenient truths is back! This year, we bring together six Singaporean directors making feature film comebacks or debuts at the festival for a double bill of panel and game. Prepare your controversial statements for the ones who have blazed paths and done all they could to bring a story to the silver screen. What have they learned in their adventures in and out of Singapore? Would they do it again?

Uncover behind-the-scenes stories, the good times and the bad. Join us on the game floor and post your votes online in real-time as we confront more dilemmas about embarking on a career making pictures in Singapore.
