In this session, under the auspices of their shared love for the Pontianak, we bring together two artists who have been embarking on creative detours from this trodden path. Amanda Nell Eu is at the forefront of a new generation of Malaysian filmmakers. Tania De Rozario is an established artist from Singapore who has developed a multidisciplinary body of work that fuses concerns with gender, sexuality and the politics of art. In this session, they will discuss the creative potential of being from yet apart from one’s own culture, the outsider disposition during coming of age, female ghosts within Southeast Asian mythology - and how these threads lead to feminist statements through art. SHORT FILM SCREENINGS•         Spit (Malaysia, UK / 2010 / 10min)•         It's Easier to Raise Cattle (Malaysia / 2017 / 18min / Rating: PG13 - Horror) OFFICIAL WEBSITEsgiff.com/newwaves OTHER SESSION •        25 July • Special Edition – Asian Three-Fold Mirror: Reflections Sharifah Amani (Malaysia) In dialogue with Janice Koh  TICKETING •        A fully refundable fee of $5 is charged for each ticket booking.•        On the event, simply present the e-ticket at the Front-of-House desk.
