A Vietnamese short film and two directors won awards at the 32nd Singapore International Film Festival.

 

Truong Minh Quy's "The Men Who Wait" was awarded the Best Southeast Asian Short Film at the festival held Sunday.

 

The jury remarked that the film "beautifully draws us in where the superimposition of space between men living on the margins are left waiting, wanting. A cinema that is as unapologetic and bold as it is painfully real and ephemeral."
