The annual Singapore Chinese Film Festival, co-organised by the Centre for Chinese Studies@SUSS and Singapore Film Society, will be back from 18 April 2019 to 28 April 2019! The 7th Singapore Chinese Film Festival showcases over 60 films from the region, and two panel discussions. More than 20 filmmakers will attend post-screening Q&A sessions or panel talks. Amongst them is Ms Oliver Chan, director of our opening film Still Human which garnered eight (8) nominations at the 38th Hong Kong Film Awards.
In addition to the staple of films that make up Chinese Panorama, and Chinese Shorts Showcase, SCFF 2019 is proud to present two new sections: Filmmaker in Focus: Chang Yi where we will be screening his latest work, an animated movie A Dog's Life, and his award-winning films Kuei-Mei, A Woman and This Love of Mine, which have been digitally restored and remastered, and (Non) Chinese Language Cinema which showcases the diversity of spoken languages and cultures explored by talented Chinese filmmakers.
Our closing film is In Our Time, which consists of four short films directed by Edward Yang, Ko Yi-Cheng, Chang Yi, and Tao Te-Chen. It marks the beginning of the Taiwanese New Wave, a movement of the 1980s geared towards rejuvenating Taiwanese cinema.
With a smorgasbord of films to satisfy every screen appetite, remember to mark your calendar and purchase tickets in advance! You won't want to miss the opportunity to watch great films with like-minded cinephiles and meet talented filmmakers in person!

由新跃社科大学新跃中华学术中心和新加坡电影协会携手举办的新加坡华语电影节又来了！从2019年4月18日到4月28日，2019新加坡华语电影节精选了60部电影让大家同行观赏，又邀来近20位电影人与大家相聚。本届新加坡华语电影节的开幕片是获得第38届香港电影金像奖8项提名的《沦落人》，其导演陈小娟会在映后和大家相聚。
华夏风情画今年有8部中国作品参展，其中《猫与桃花源》是能让爸爸妈妈带小朋友进入猫世界的动画电影。香港今年共有8部电影参展，其中《翠丝》《G殺》《非同凡响》《非分熟女》有导演李骏硕、李卓斌、欧文杰和曾翠珊相随。台湾则有5部作品参展。《只有大海知道》是适合阖家观赏的电影，而《引爆点》和《狂徒》则有近期广受瞩目的吴慷仁担纲演出。
华流短片展单元这次共有6套短片，其中金马短片集1和2是台北金马电影学院历届学生的部分作品。配合这两套短片集我们邀来剪接大师，同时也是金马学院学务长廖庆松来到本地和不同届次的学员在“报告学务长：新马学员的金马经验”座谈会相聚。
今年的经典单元是张毅精选展。张毅导演在2018年推出他的新作《狗狗伤心志》，加上他的两部经典作品《我这样过了一生》《我的爱》已完成修复，我们以此为契机让大家温故知新。
近年来有不少华语电影人跨界到非华语世界进行创作，我们因此推出华人非华语这个新单元，让大家看到华语电影人在另一个语言世界的精彩。
今年电影节以《光阴的故事》作为闭幕片。这部经典电影在1980年代初吹起了台湾新电影的号角。让我们在37年以后，透过修复的影像一起来重温台湾新电影的开始。
不要忘记4月18日至28日新加坡华语电影节与您的约会。期待与您同行，更希望您与电影人的相聚。我们不见不散！
