Film: The House of Janus (25 July, 7.30pm)
The House of Janus, marks director Ong Keng Sen's return to cinema since 1996's blockbuster Army Daze. This deeply personal and visually striking "love letter" offers an intimate glimpse into Ong's life in Europe with his nonagenarian partner, Adriaan van de Staay. The film meditates on enduring love, ageing and impermanence through a compelling hybrid of cinema verité, documentary, and operatic fantasy set within their Italian hillside home in Bettona.
