It shows how film acquires signification through cultural interpretation, and how film also serves as a site of contestations between social and political agents seeking to promote, challenge, or erase certain meanings, messages or ideas from public circulation. A unique feature of the book is that it focuses as much on films as it does on the societies from which these films emerge: it considers the reasons for film-makers taking the positions they take; the positions and counter-positions taken; the response of different communities; and the extent to which these interventions are connected to global flows of culture and capital.Media, culture, and social change in Asia series.Film, TV & radiobicsscFilm theory & criticismbicsscRegional studiesbicsscEthnic studiesbicsscArea StudiesAsian StudiesAsian Studies (General)Asian Culture & SocietySouth East Asian StudiesSouth East Asian Culture & SocietyPolitics & International RelationsComparative PoliticsHumanitiesMedia & Film StudiesFilm StudiesContemporary CinemaWorld CinemaSocial SciencesSociology & Social PolicyRace & Ethnic StudiesSociology of CultureFilm, TV & radioFilm theory & criticismRegional studiesEthnic studies791.430959Yamamoto Hiroyukiauth1461517Lim David C.
