AV Theater Situated on the second floor of the main building is an AV theatre that can seat 69 people. Documentaries are screened at different times of the day showing various aspects of the Japanese Occupation. Among them are documentaries showing the Malay regiment through its formation and expansion during the 1930s as well as interviews with family members of the soldiers of this regiment who fought in the Battle of Bukit Panjang.
These documentaries provide visitors with a detailed and in-depth look at the Japanese Occupation as well as the events that occurred prior to it. The interviews included in the documentaries allow visitors to better understand the wide range of emotions experienced by the people then. The visual experience in the AV theatre will also change visitors' outlook on these events. No longer will they be purely seen as historical events as visitors understand the more personal side of them through the documentaries. |
