Public housing dwellers dreaming their other lives.
synopsis
FLAT DREAMS is about public housing dwellers trying to make sense of their mundane lives. Comprising 3 mini shorts spanning 3 generations ~ Flat, Neighbourhood Watch, Void Deck ~ we see people living a flat life dreaming their other lives.
director's statement
Living in Singapore, its pettiness annoys me. It is a place where I see no space for dreams whenever I wake up & open my eyes. The film takes an ironic look at the confinement of spaces --- its flatness, homogeneity and the desperation to be useful in fear of emptiness.
