European Film Festival 2023 – Singapore

7 May 2023 in ARTS & CULTURE, EVENTS, FUN, SINGAPORE

It’s May! A new month means adding new plans to our calendars and there’s quite a few things to be excited about. :) One of them being the return of the European Film Festival in Singapore held at The Projector cinema!

Nothing compares to watching a movie on the big screen and I’m personally a huge fan, you’ll always find me at the cinema or catching a screening! This May, returning for its 32nd year, the EUFF is once again showcasing a selection of over 20 films from European cinema today and if you’re looking for something different from the latest Hollywood releases (which I also love, don’t get me wrong!), you have to check out the full list of films here!

Every year, the EUFF features a European country, and this year’s featured country is Sweden, a country I’ve not been to yet, but will like to someday! 

For now, I had the privilege to catch a screening of the EUFF 2023’s opening film Hilma, which tells the story of Swedish artist Hilma af Klint and her life in Sweden in the 19th to 20th century. Even as someone who didn’t know much about her, it was fascinating to learn more about her life and weave through all the different aspects of who she was. Today, the artist’s paintings are exhibited around Europe, UK and USA, including The Guggenheim in New York City and Tate Modern in London. 

I really enjoyed the film and recommend checking it out, but of course, there’s so much more to choose from! 

The EUFF is held at indie cinema The Projector and if you’ve always been interested to visit the retro movie theatre located at Golden Mile Tower, this is a great opportunity to do so! It was my first time there and I tried to capture a little bit of the place to share here.

One more thing, the EUFF is also screening 8 short films by student filmmakers from Lasalle, NTU and Ngee Ann Polytechnic (full list here), which I thought is a great way to celebrate up and coming talent!

Mark your calendars from 16 to 31 May 2023, pick your film (or films!) and book your tickets! Tickets cost $15 (standard) or $13 (students/NSF/seniors). Hope you enjoy your movie experience as much as I did. :)

Note: I was invited to a media screening of the European Film Festival 2023’s opening film Hilma, thank you to the EUFF’s press team for having me! This is not a paid post.

☀️ A day in the life: out of office edition ☀️ 

I've been enjoying browsing "a day in the life" posts shared by others, so I thought I'll share one of my own. :) Here's a day I captured, when I was out of office a few weeks ago for a much needed break. 😌 

🍳 Started the day at my neighbourhood Starbucks, eating a small breakfast and started on a bit of blogging again~ 

📚 Popped over to the bookstore @booksbeyond.borders to donate some books and browse more books & wonderful things! 

🍽 📽Off to a buffet lunch! Stuffed myself happy, then dashed to the cinema @theprojectorsg to catch a screening of Angelina Jolie's <Maria> 

🍵 Walked over to @baristartcoffee_sg inside another bookstore @bookxcess and had grand plans to read my book, but ended up contemplating my career instead. 😆 

That's a day in my life (OOO edition), how do you spend yours?

Before we dive head first into 2025, my sister @wording_art and I spent a spontaneous few days in our (other) favourite city: Hong Kong! 🌟 

After the craziness of 2024, this sister trip felt like a much needed reset. Thanks HK, for letting us live our best lives. 😄✨️ 

Some snapshots here, more to come~

2024 has been full of surprises so far! Mostly in great ways though. 😄 This year has also been one of my busiest ones in recent memory. ☁️ 

In other news, my blog citygirlcitystories.com that I started when I graduated from university turns 10 years old next week! 🥳 Ahh, where does the time go... 😶‍🌫️ Life's demands meant that I took an unexpected hiatus from my blog, but if you'll kindly hope with me, perhaps I could return to it soon! 🍀

(Compiled from three weekends haha, because I have long given up on sharing anything online "on time". 😆)
The first half of 2024 was tiring... in more ways The first half of 2024 was tiring... in more ways than one. Despite that, I had a hard stop in May to take time off, flew across the world and landed in London, a city that has been on my travel list for ages!! 🇬🇧 

A week full of (mostly) British summer weather, incredible art and stunning museums, charming bookshops, the most beautiful libraries, scones and tea, I really enjoyed London! 😊💛 

I hope to catch up with Instagram/blogging soon, which I completely fell off from, and there's stuff from Singapore/Hong Kong/London I'd love to share, but for now, here's two candid photos captured by @wording_art reflecting my happiness on this trip. :) 

🌼 Looks like I'm doing a weird dance but was actually avoiding rain puddles at Kenwood House, one of my favourite places I visited! 

🖼 Visited several of London's wonderful museums and this was at the National Portrait Gallery, where I got to see the famed "Portrait of Mai (Omai)" in person! 🤩 I was following this acquisition story in the news and was especially delighted when I heard that it was on display during my trip. :) 

More soon and here's to the second half of 2024! ✨️🤞
Books are a huge passion in my life and for 2024, Books are a huge passion in my life and for 2024, I plan to try harder to bring more of my book recommendations to my blog! :) For my first rec this year, I'm excited to share "Dearest New York: A Love Letter to New York" by Deirdre Gartner @girlintheyellowtaxinyc 🚕

If you'd like to, I'd be delighted if you check out my review on citygirlcitystories.com As a bonus, I also have a Q&A with the author herself! 🤩 

I'm actually a huge fan of the @girlintheyellowtaxinyc blog and Instagram, so I loved hearing from Deirdre about life in NYC and her experience being a native New Yorker. Do check out the full author interview on my blog! (link in bio) 🍎
