This book outlines and discusses the very wide range of cinema
which is to be found in Singapore. Although Singapore cinema is a
relatively small industry, and relatively new, it has nevertheless
made an impact, and continues to develop in interesting ways. The
book shows that although Singapore cinema is often seen as part of
diasporic Chinese cinema, it is in fact much more than this, with
strong connections to Malay cinema and the cinemas of other
Southeast Asian nations. Moreover, the themes and subjects covered
by Singapore cinema are very wide, ranging from conformity to the
regime and Singapore's national outlook, with undesirable subjects
overlooked or erased, to the sympathetic depiction of minorities
and an outlook which is at odds with the official outlook. The book
will be useful to readers coming new to the subject and wanting a
concise overview, while at the same time the book puts forward many
new research findings and much new thinking.
