Singapore Film Festival Awards Southeast Asian Documentaries and Shorts
The Singapore International Film Festival has set the recipients of its 2025 Film Fund, spanning documentaries and shorts from across Southeast Asia.
Selected from nearly 400 submissions, the funded projects represent filmmakers from Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore and the Philippines, covering subjects ranging from true crime to spiritual inquiry and counter-histories. “This year, they encompass a wide range of expressions, blending unexpected forms of storytelling such as true crime, surrealism and counter-histories—including a striking mixed-media animated film,” said program director Thong Kay Wee. The third short film grant went to Singapore artist-filmmaker EXYL for an untitled mixed-media work crafted using charcoal, ink and live action elements, described as “a narrative experiment shaped by instinct rather than design.”
