Fifteen Singapore filmmakers are coming together for a film project to rediscover and tell a side of Singaporeans previously untold. We think of ourselves as practical, hardworking and driven, but we also have taken risks, dared to care beyond convenience and stood up for what we believed in.

The short films will feature stories from the 1970s-late 90s from the Singapore Archives, SPH, MediaCorp and national libraries to present in a diversity in styles, the everyday heroes who made us who we are today. Fifteen directors will range from the most acclaimed and experienced to very young filmmakers who show promise and potential because we believe all our voices matter. This is a community effort and we will tell our stories together to express our Singapore story.

Donations of cash, in-kind and skills are welcome. We invite you to be part of the story.
