🦅💽 When a computer hard drive contains the most precious data, disaster can strike out of nowhere. It could be accidentally dropped, ruined by spilled coffee, or, in some cases, a falcon could swoop in and snatch it away right from your very hands.
The Chase is a short film by the Singaporean filmmaker Kew Lin, commissioned by the Asian Film Archive (AFA) for our #SaveOurFilm campaign.
#SaveOurFilm2025 is an advocacy campaign highlighting the importance of safeguarding our digital cinematic heritage to ensure that future generations can continue to access Asia’s moving images.
If you are a filmmaker or collector and would like to preserve your films, go to AFA’s film submissions application (submissions.asianfilmarchive.org) to submit a screener of your film.
If you wish to contribute to support the work of the AFA in preserving Asian cinematic heritage, volunteer with AFA (asianfilmarchive.org/volunteer/) or donate to the campaign (giving.sg/donate/campaign/saveourfilm-2025).
