In this first full-length study on the topic, Matthew Hunt-with
access to rare and controversial films-provides a history of film
censorship in Thailand. Hunt outlines its beginnings in the
country, when films were censored by the police for political and
ideological reasons, rather than on the basis of taste and decency,
to the present when issues such as politics, religion, and sex are
the main reasons films are banned. He also examines how Thai
filmmakers approach culturally sensitive subjects and how their
films have been censored as a result. Hunt presents interviews with
ten leading directors, including conversations with Thai New Wave
veterans Apichatpong Weerasethakul and Pen-ek Ratanaruang. In these
interviews, the directors discuss their most controversial films,
which range from mainstream studio movies to independent arthouse
releases, and explain their responses to censorship.
