The Single Screen, Block 43 Malan Road
NTU CCA Singapore is pleased to present the rough cut of
A Certain Illness Difficult to Name (2018), a new film created by experimental filmmaker Taiki Sakpisit during his three-month residency at the Centre. Filmed entirely in Singapore, the work is a poetic meditation on states of transition, a spiritual quest imbued with a mysterious sense of malaise. Slowly panning over the landscape and pausing on enigmatic frames, the camera quietly leads the viewer on a visual and aural journey across different layers of emotional intensity. The preview of
A Certain Illness Difficult to Name will be preceded by the screening of
Trouble in Paradise, a short film realised in southern Thailand in 2017, shown in Singapore for the first time on this occasion.
A Certain Illness Difficult to Name, Singapore, 2018, 18min
Trouble in Paradise, Thailand, 2017, 13min
The screening will be followed by a Q&A with the artist.
