[Where "Smell of Rain" has been]

It's been quite awhile since "Smell of Rain" first premiered in Singapore. Since then, our little film has had the opportunity to go to different places worldwide.

In the past year, "Smell of Rain" took part in the following festivals:

Film Asia - Graz, Austria - April 2007
Abu Dhabi, United Emirates Film Festival - Mar 2007
Rome Asian Film Festival - Dec 2006
Lyon Asian Film Festival - Nov 2006
Cannes International Film Festival - May 2006

None of this would have been possible without the love and support from all the various people we have met along this incredible journey.

Thank you so much for your support.

[梦想]

================================== … ***** …..

实现梦想必然是每个年轻人曾经有过的思念吧? 就好象 《雨之味》 主题歌 [到达] 里的一句歌词 ‘听说每颗心都有个家’我深信每个梦也都会有个家。就这样, 再借用歌里的另一句词 ‘我早已将无尽的(追梦)当成一种信仰’。

在这短短几个月的路程, 我上了很多之前生活里漏掉的课程,也看到了人与人感情之间的坚强和脆弱。我还从中领悟到一件令我非常痛心的事, 那就是我的執著所带给身边跟我一起奋斗的同伴们的困扰。因为我的梦想,大家都辛苦了许多。

并肩战斗的好友在紧要关头,给了我这一辈子最珍贵的承诺。 他说: “放弃不是我们的原则, 即使只剩下你和我, 可以吗?”。将《雨之味》 顺利的在大银幕呈现给大家,就是我能给他最肯定的回答。

如果《雨之味》 这部作品是那么好的话,那就让新加坡的观众,用行动来告诉我们。只有在国人的支持下,我们才能继续的通过电影,诉说属于我们的故事。

在那之前,我想我会再去找另一个起点。做什么, 在哪里, 我不知道, 但我却非常清楚,下一次,我不要在‘没有救生圈’的情况下, 再拉群我深爱的朋友一起跳下水了。这次的帐,请 让我在接下来的日子, 慢慢的还清。可以吧?
