Tiptoeing Towards Regional Coproductions, Asian Governments Take Funding, Reform Steps

Patrick Frater Asia Bureau Chief Governments and agencies across Asia are taking steps to expand and extend the cross-border film coproduction movement. A seminar called ‘From Eurasia to Global Collaboration’ on Thursday, the third day of the Taiwan Creative Content Fest, represented a handy recap of funding and structural developments from four countries: The Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia and Turkey. Alex Sihar, from Indonesia’s directorate of culture, part of the ministry of education, described an ongoing process intended to put the industry on a more professional footing. “While we have a long history of filmmaking and a very diverse culture, our films until recently have had very little international exposure, there has been little knowledge transfer and no incentives for location shooting or co-production.” Film policy was previously stretched across multiple ministries, but is now to be overseen by a film department under the education ministry, which is newly separated from educational matters.Co-productions are to be further encouraged and the country’s matching fund (which doubles up on funding available from the likes of the World Cinema Fund, TAICCA and Purin Pictures) is likely to be expanded. Indonesia is also a founder member of the Asian Film Alliance Network (AFAN, alongside Mongolia, Singapore, Taiwan, The Philippines, South Korea and Malaysia). Marylo Christine H.

‘Small Hours of the Night,’ Film About Censorship, Banned in Singapore and Pulled From Festival

Patrick Frater Asia Bureau Chief “Small Hours of the Night,” by Singapore director Daniel Hui, has been removed from the lineup of the Singapore International Film Festival. The city-state’s authorities have refused the film a release certificate, meaning that it is effectively banned and that the festival cannot go forward with the docu-drama’s planned screening in its Undercurrents section. The festival has made no public statement, but its website shows the film as not available for screening. In the early years of Singapore’s independence (from the British Empire in 1963 and from Malaysia in 1965), Tan Chay Wa had been an armed activist, possibly a Communist, who rejected the two countries’ separation.
