Synopsis:

Be a part of a landmark moment in local cinema as internationally acclaimed filmmaker Nelson Yeo presents The House on the Moon 《明月共此时》—celebrated as Singapore's first wuxia feature film, brought to life through innovative virtual production technology.

Rooted in ancient folklore yet reimagined through a bold science-fiction lens, the film follows Chang Er, the celestial fairy maiden, as she embarks on an ethereal journey across the dark side of the moon. Her quest: to uncover the fate of her missing lover, Hou Yi—the legendary sun-shooting archer who vanished while attempting to save the dying sun.

Weaving together folklore, wuxia, and romance with cutting-edge virtual production, Yeo crafts an immersive, surreal landscape that blurs the boundary between cinematic spectacle, human longing, and personal identity.

Join us on November 12 for the opening screening and an in-person Q&A with Director Nelson Yeo, and lead actress Shi-An Lim. This screening is part of The Way Of The Sword: Wuxia Masters, co-presented by Filmhouse and Momo Film Co, and supported by Singapore Film Society.

Subsequent screening dates will be released on Filmhouse's website.
