What About Farquhar?

About This Movie

So, 'What About Farquhar?' is quite the quirky little film. Set in the unassuming backdrop of an HDB void deck, it dives into the mind of this man who believes he's William Farquhar. The way he rants about his supposed contributions to Singapore, comparing himself to Stamford Raffles, is both amusing and a bit sad. The atmosphere is oddly engaging, with a slow pacing that allows you to soak in the absurdity of his monologues. The performances have a raw quality, capturing that sense of isolation and delusion. It’s not about action or flashy effects, but rather the mundane reality that surrounds him that makes you think. It's distinctive for its offbeat humor and sharp social commentary, really worth a look for those who appreciate independent films.
