Losing Ground
By the end of 2023, a third of Singapore’s Dover Forest will be cleared for urban development. As the forest faces impending destruction, the film explores what this space means for various individuals through its biodiversity and natural beauty. Dover Forest demonstrates how it is more than a ‘patch-of-green’ in Singapore, as it is filled with life with various flora and fauna calling it their home.
