Filmmakers had called for a boycott over the rule change.
The organisers behind Thailand’s Suphannahong National Film Awards have dropped a rule that would effectively disqualify independent features from nomination following a major backlash.
A recent rule change by the National Federation of Motion Pictures and Contents Associations (Mpc) stated that theatrical releases in five regions of Thailand and a minimum of 50,000 cinema admissions were required for a film to be considered for nomination. These regions include Bangkok, Chiangmai (the north), Chonburi (the east), Nakhon Ratchasima (the northeast) and Nakhon Si Thammarat (the south).

Η φετινή σεζόν ήταν ασυνήθιστη για τον ασιατικό κινηματογράφο, μιας και δεν υπήρχε κάποιο αριστούργημα του διαμετρήματος των Παρασίτων ή του Burning, αλλά ως σύνολο, πολύ περισσότερες καλές ταινίες, κάτι που πολύ πιθανόν να οφείλεται και στο ότι πολλές παραγωγές είχαν παγώσει λόγω Covid και προβλήθηκαν φέτος. Χωρίς πολλά λόγια, αυτές είναι οι επιλογές μου για τις καλύτερες ασιατικές ταινίες της χρονιάς. Για τις πλήρεις κριτικές στα αγγλικά, μπορείτα απλά να κάνετε κλικ στον τίτλο. Κάποια από τα φιλμ μπορεί να ήταν παραγωγής 2021, αλλά μιας και κυκλοφόρησαν κυρίως το 2022, αποφάσισα να τις συμπεριλάβω
30. Zalava (Arsalan Amiri, Iran)
Arsalan Amiri bases his whole narrative on the questions mentioned above, with the reply regarding if the movie will turn into a supernatural horror (thus meaning the locals are right) or continue as a social drama regarding the blights of disidemony (thus meaning the sergeant is right) carrying the movie almost to the end.

Nawapol “Ter” Thamrongrattanarit has been an exciting director to follow, his works treading a very fine line, sitting right on the border between indie and mainstream cinema. Dealing with various themes, his narratives often return to one key element: love. It is thus with excitement and curiosity that one approaches “Fast & Feel Love”, his latest work which was funnily enough marketed as his first action film.
“Fast and Feel Love” is screening on Fantasia International Film Festival
Kao and Jay both do not really fit in at their school. With his obsession for competitive sport stacking, Kao doesn’t have any time to make friends and Jay, who loves her plants and speaks impeccable English, is constantly called a “Falang” (foreigner). The two find solace in each other’s company and genuinely become fond of each other. Years down the line, the two are in their 30s and living together.
