Singaporean filmmaker Ang Geck Geck Priscilla’s debut feature “Ah Girl” won best film in the Asian Feature Film Competition at the Singapore International Film Festival’s Silver Screen Awards on Saturday.

The film follows a seven-year-old girl in 1990s Singapore whose parents have separated. Ang workshopped the project at the festival’s Southeast Asian Film Lab back in 2015, and “Ah Girl” went on to take the Youth Jury Award at the International Film Festival Rotterdam. Ang is an alumna of the Busan Asian Film Academy. Her 2012 short “Broken Crayon” won the Singapore Short Film Awards’ best short film prize.
