FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why can't I view the film that I rented on watch.smhff.com anymore?

SMHFF 2021 concluded on May 30, 2021. This means that all feature films are no longer available as of 11:59pm on May 30. The expiration countdown that you see is a 9-day purchase window, which still gives you access to the Bonus Content.

All Bonus Content, including the recorded panel sessions, are available to June 6.

I understand that the Festival is now fully virtual. What happens to my tickets to the National Gallery Singapore?
