AFS showcases short films from partner countries in South-East Asia, where film programmers are invited to curate cutting-edge short films from their respective countries and share them with the local audience. In addition, through intimate dialogue sessions, AFS provides a vital platform for sharing and exchange among filmmakers, critics and programmers, encouraging dialogue between these key players in regional independent film industries, in the presence of an audience who will hear them debate and discuss pertinent topics that affect cinema in the region today.This 2015 edition of AFS features the theme: Pop! Culture. Deemed as the 'culture of the people', pop culture encompasses the collection of ideals and ideas influenced mainly by the mass media. From fashion, television, language, music and films, these elements very much make up the contemporary aspects of our lives. Pop Culture is everywhere; we talk about it, we read about it and in some ways, we are obsessed about it. How does pop culture affect or influence our society? Through these short films, the notion of pop culture will be explored from an Asian perspective.This year's Country-In-Focus is Taiwan. A special program curated by Taipei International Film Festival curator Kuo Ming-Jung will be presented on Saturday 12th September, with the curator in attendance.Their respective curators and a filmmaker will represent all countries featured in Asian Film Symposium. Asian Film Symposium 2015 is supported by "Watch Local", an initiative under the Singapore Film Commision.Rating for these films are TBA.For more information on Asian Film Symposium, please visit:www.objectifs.com.sg/afs2015/www.facebook.com/events/1007195269336915TICKET DETAILSDialogue Session: What is Short Film today? Re-looking contexts and definitions in the distracted age - 7pm to 8pmFrom web series to narrative music videos and experiential video art, the short film is undergoing evolutions to form, tone and genre. What do various practitioners in the field consider a "short film" at present? In the face of prolific outputs of audiovisual content from amateurs to professionals alike, film programmers and filmmakers from the region will share their thoughts on what current pop culture has informed their understanding of a short film today, with a special focus on the shifting preference of consumption modes in the short form media.*Speakers TBAScreening 1 - 8.30pm to 10pm / 87 mins / Rating TBABlossom Your Life!
