BIFF unveils Asian cinema retrospective for 30th edition
Festival launches third edition of Asian Cinema 100 survey program The Busan International Film Festival announced Friday its special program "Defining Moments of Asian Cinema," featuring retrospective screenings and talks with major Asian filmmakers for its 30th anniversary edition. The program marks the third iteration of the festival's Asian Cinema 100 initiative, first launched in 2015. It follows previous editions surveying the best Asian films (2015) and best Asian films by female directors (2021). Festival organizers selected 119 titles through a survey of 161 film professionals from 34 countries. Ten films from the list will screen during the festival, which runs Sept.17-26 in venues throughout Busan. Iranian director Jafar Panahi, who won this year's Palme d'Or at Cannes for "It Was Just an Accident," will attend with his film "This Is Not a Film" (2011). The documentary was secretly filmed while Panahi was under house arrest and banned from filmmaking by Iranian authorities. It captures his frustration as an artist unable to create. BIFF named Panahi its Asian Filmmaker of the Year in July. He is the first Asian director to win top prizes at all three major European festivals — Cannes, Venice and Berlin. Fellow Iranian filmmaker Marziyeh Meshkiny will present "The Day I Became a Woman," which won BIFF's New Currents Award in 2000. Other participants include Chinese directors Jia Zhang-ke ("Still Life"), Tsai Ming-liang ("Goodbye, Dragon Inn") and Wang Bing ("Tie Xi Qu: West of the Tracks"). Hong Kong's Johnnie To will present "Election." Japanese director Ryusuke Hamaguchi's "Drive My Car" will screen alongside "Nobody Knows" by Hirokazu Kore-eda. Actor Yuya Yagira will introduce "Nobody Knows," for which he won Best Actor at Cannes. Korean cinema will be represented by Park Chan-wook's "Oldboy" and Lee Chang-dong's "Burning." The retrospective comes as BIFF introduces its first competitive section after 29 years as a non-competitive event. The new competition focuses exclusively on Asian films, reinforcing the festival's commitment to regional cinema. The festival will present approximately 240 films, up from 224 last year. A commemorative publication featuring all 119 selected films and critical essays will accompany the program, according to organizers.

See Singapore's Story Come Alive on a Reimagined Singapore Flyer Journey
Embark on an immersive journey featuring the new Time Capsule experience SINGAPORE, Aug. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Starting 8 August 2025, guests can look forward to a reimagined Singapore Flyer journey that traces the full arc of Singapore's story, from ancient origins to modern marvels. In celebration of Singapore's 60 th year of independence, Time Capsule – a two-storey multisensory attraction first opened in 2020 – has been transformed into a fully immersive pre-flight experience blending cutting-edge multimedia, interactive exhibits, and cinematic storytelling, all enhanced by a personalised web app. This prelude sets the stage for the Singapore Flyer journey, which culminates in breathtaking 360-degree views of the city skyline. An Immersive Journey Through the Singapore Story Singapore's remarkable story comes alive through an interactive journey at Time Capsule led by R65, a time-travelling robot. Created in collaboration with creative studio Untitled Project, guests are transported back to the 1200s to uncover Singapore's mythical legends and fascinating origins as a trading port, with full-screen video animations, projection mapping, and light detection and ranging (LiDAR) technology bringing each moment of history vividly to life. Guests can wander down an interactive Singapore River meandering through history, and step into nostalgia with a chess-tile concrete table set before a 300-degree projection wall chronicling Singapore's transformation. On Level 2, vibrant Peranakan-themed installations, LiDAR-enabled interactive games, and multimedia showcases explore Singapore's identity and role on the world stage. For a personalised experience, guests may use the Time Capsule web app and complimentary WiFi to scan QR codes and delve deeper with life-sized characters, from traders to the indigenous Orang Laut. The immersive ground-level experience transitions seamlessly into the sky as guests board the Singapore Flyer, soaring 165 metres above the city and unlocking deeper insights into nearby landmarks with the FLYER360 mobile app powered by augmented reality. Time Capsule entry is included in every admission ticket, transforming the Singapore Flyer journey from a 30-minute ride into an integrated 75-minute adventure through Singapore's inspiring evolution – from a humble settlement to a world-class city. Ringo Leung, General Manager of Singapore Flyer, said, "The reimagined Singapore Flyer journey invites everyone to experience the Singapore story in an entirely fresh and entertaining way, from the ground to the sky. By integrating immersive on-ground adventures with interactive in-capsule experiences, we aim to present a fun, multifaceted perspective of Singapore that goes beyond the traditional observation wheel experience."
