Never before screened in the UK, to our knowledge.
A motorcycle kung fu love story set during the hottest month in Singapore’s history.
If you’ve seen the brilliant documentary Shirkers, you’ll recognise the name. EATING AIR is directed by Jasmine Ng Kin Kia, one of the creators of Shirkers, the lost film at the heart of that documentary.
A romance between two opposites, EATING AIR follows two teenagers over one sweltering summer. For Boy, breaking into bridal shops under the moonlight is a thrill. For Girl, nothing beats her first motorcycle ride through the fluorescent tunnels of the CTE.
Tender, reckless, and full of teenage intensity, the film captures the delirious energy that makes eighteen year olds feel invincible to low fuel, flying fists, and oil slicks on the road.
