Built in 1958, Dakota Crescent is one of Singapore’s oldest government housing estates.
The vintage design of the blocks and even its playground has even attracted a young generation of Singaporeans who are expressing a new appreciation for Singapore’s cultural heritage.
Viddsee presents to you this documentary, which captures how the community of residents and heritage enthusiasts come together to celebrate a unique neighbourhood in its last remaining days, after an announcement of the impending redevelopment of the estate is given.
This is also a portrait of the Singaporean kampong spirit, celebrating the diversity of the Singaporean experience and showing how social memories glue communities together.
