Some 550 people attended the screening at GV Grand at Great World City on 15th October, with a further 130 or so present at the special corporate event screening on 14th October at GV Vivocity.

Glen mingled with guests at the pre-movie reception on both nights, as did members of his cast. They included Lim Kay Siu, Adrian Pang, Neo Swee Lin, Emma Yong, Claire Wong, Tan Kheng Hua, Huzir Sulaiman and Pam Oei.

In his message in the programme booklet, Glen said he had picked AWARE for the charity premiere because it “seeks gender equality, embraces diversity, and respects the right of individuals to live the life they choose – values that I would expect to prevail in any civilised society. These are the very themes that I explore in the film.”

In her message, AWARE President Dana Lam said “Glen’s film is a satire about the family and its espoused values. It is also about love and the importance of imagination – the ability to imagine realities other than one’s own.

“Ultimately, it is about courage – the courage to be one’s self and to allow others to be themselves. It is about the need to have the imagination, and the courage, to accept. And the tenacity to carry on in spite of difficulties. At AWARE, we understand this well.”

AWARE thanks all who helped to make the fundraising premiere a success. Special thanks to Glen, and to our sponsors:
