This weekend, we’re hitting pause on the autopilot and zooming in on the things that make us, us. Whether through the beats of our pop culture past or the stories flickering across a cinema screen, it’s a chance to rediscover Singapore’s layered identity through fresh, thoughtful experiences. From immersive exhibitions and nostalgic films to quiet moments of indulgence, the city is brimming with ways to reflect on who we are—individually and collectively. It’s not flag-waving, but the kind of pride that we live and breathe.
