SHORT FILMS SCREENING AND DISCUSSION January 2007

Selamat Tahun Baru 2007!

Pada awal tahun ini, minikino memilih S-Express Indonesia 2005: Jauh Di Mata (Faraway Lands), yang tertinggal dari serial program screening bulanan s-express tahun lalu (2006).

S-Express Indonesia 2005 disusun oleh Minikino, sebagai karya-karya yang representatif dari keberadaan film pendek di Indonesia pada tahun 2005. Program ini sudah pernah dipertunjukan kepada publik Indonesia pada event 7th JiFFest 2005 di Jakarta, selain di negara-negara Asia Tenggara yang terlibat.

S-Express diprakarsai oleh Yuni Hadi (Substation, Singapore), Amir Muhammad (Malaysian Shorts), dan Chalida Uabumrungjit (Thai Film Foundation) pada tahun 2002 dan sejak tahun 2004 Minikino ikut serta untuk memprogram bagian film pendek Indonesia. Pada tahun 2005, S-Express mengalami penambahan program, yaitu dari Filipina (yang diprogram oleh Alexis A. Tioseco) dan dari Cina (yang diprogram oleh Maggie Lee).
