Student Thesis Film Selected for Asian Film Archive's Singapore Shorts '23

Architecture student’s short films produced for her master’s thesis is selected for Asian Film Archive’s Singapore Shorts film festival this year.

Sundays In-Between reimagines Peninsula Plaza’s liminal spaces on the Burmese community’s off-days. By overlaying footage shot on Sundays, the film carves out an architecture that works through opportunistic acts of invention, articulating a quiet yet political aesthetic, and revealing what it means to thrive in spaces unintended for cultural difference.

Sundays In-Between (2023) is a short film that complements Ye Thu’s Master of Architecture thesis with the same name supervised by Dr Lilian Chee. His short film, Sundays In-Between (2023), will be screened at the Oldham Theatre on 20 August 2023.

Singapore Shorts is an annual showcase organised by the Asian Film Archive (AFA) to celebrate the boldness and diversity of local short films each year. Selected by a panel of respected film professionals, Singapore Shorts ’23 provides the widest showing of short film titles in Singapore.
