Cингапурская GaGa (0+)
Singapore, 2006, colour, 55 min.
Director: Tan Pin Pin
Director: Tan Pin Pin
Singapore GaGa is an essay film, a 55-minute paean to the quirkiness of the Singaporean aural landscape. We hear buskers, street vendors, school cheerleaders and other characters sing hymns to themselves and to their communities. “GaGa” means being crazy over something in English, anger in Malay and a yearning for a time past – all emotions which find expression in Singapore GaGa.
