248. To Singapore, with love (2013)


Country: Singapore
Directed by Tan Pin Pin

A controversial documentary, banned in Singapore, where Singaporian communists, leftists and activists, political exiles for decades without the right to return, talk about their lives far from the motherland, their friends and relatives, giving at the same time an account of one of the darkest sides of Singapore's reality, the political oppression by the ruling party. The film is full of nostalgia and emotions from the people in exile but far from to be a personal based melodrama. What matters here is the presantation of a chapter of the country's history that shaped the lives of all these people for ever. Very well made
