Tan Jingliang: A Place in Displacement
(In dialogue with Adrianna Tan)
Born in Malaysia and now based in Singapore, Tan Jingliang has since
completed 5 short films such as the celebrated Transplants (2013)
which premiered at the 43rd International Film Festival Rotterdam. Lesser known
are her travelogues such as Sri Lanka Diaries and her current
work in progress Notes in the Wind, which was recently shot in
China. In this session, Tan Jingliang will be joined by nomadic social entrepreneur
Adrianna Tan, as they delve into the feeling of displacement which is felt
strongly throughout Jingliang’s body of work shot in Singapore and overseas,
and also the importance of travel, of wanderlust, and the mobility of a
filmmaker as a vessel for experiences. She will also present a film that has
deeply influenced her as a filmmaker. Short Film Screenings:A Tree in Tanjung Malim (Dir: Tan Chui Mui / Malaysia / 2004 / 25min /
