Stars hit the 2015 Silver Screen Awards red carpet

Film talent and VIPs from Asia and beyond attended the 2015 Silver Screen Awards, an annual event that takes place during the Singapore International Film Festival.  Twelve events were handed out during the evening’s festivities, which were held at the Marina Bay Sands.

Actress Michelle Yeoh headlined the event, winning the inaugural Cinema Legend Award. “I would like to dedicate this award to my father,” Yeoh said. “He taught me that imagination has no boundaries, to live your life to its full potential and believe in yourself.” (photo by Yuan-Kwan Chan / Meniscus Magazine)
