Contemporary artist Gan Siong King's essay film The Boy, His Bike & The Map, about urban cycling advocate Jeffrey Lim and the KL Bicycle Map Project, and filmmaker Emir Ezwan's RM10, a one-take film following the journey of a RM10 note as it changes hands through the night in downtown KL, are part of the five short films about the capital city that will be shown at the new public screening series Backlane Cinema this weekend.
The first edition of Backlane Cinema, themed "The Cities We Live In", will be presented at Lorong Bandar 13 in KL (the alley next to the Ruang by Think City building) on May 25, starting 7pm.
