5000 Feet Is the Best

IFFR 2012
Commissioned for the 2011 Singapore Biennale, the meaning of style qualifies as the shortest, most perfectly formed film in the Tiger Shorts competition. Shot with Malaysian skinheads in Penang, it’s a meditative fantasy on signs, signals and butterflies, leading to pointed reflections on ‘the relationship between British colonial history and popular culture in South-East Asia’, says its maker, and to quote Jose Da Silva: ‘Fuck, it’s beautiful.’
