Earlier in mid-July this year, the Singapore Film Society and The Embassy of Denmark presented a special one-off screening of Burma VJ, which had since then gone on to screen in many more countries and garnering a series of accolades.
At that screening at the Raffles Hotel Jubilee Hall, the response was tremendous, and people had to be turned away at the door most unfortunately. There were also 2 special screenings organized by Maruah Singapore in November, and if you've missed all those earlier screenings, well now is the chance to catch this riveting documentary for the first time, or all over again.
Shown exclusively at The Picturehouse, only seven (7) (yeah you read that right) screenings are available, so do catch this film while you can this weekend!

You can read my review here, which contains snippets from the Q&A session with the director Anders Østergaard over video conference.
Don't Miss This! (OK, if this is of any push for you to watch this, it's one of the shortlisted documentaries for the Oscars next year as well)
