Why this petition matters

Started by Elvis Koe

Good days to all Malaysians, Film Distributor, Cinema Authorities, Film Sensorship Board of Malaysia, we are a group of movie lovers from Penang who like to seek for your attention on below issue that we will like to highlight.

Malaysian's director Mr.Chong Keat Aun, who produced movie which is called "The Story of Southern Islet", had recently won the award of "The Best New Director" in 57th Golden Horse Awards. Furthermore, he also won 3 international award including "Best Movie" in Network for the Promotion of Asian Cinema (NETPAC)"Best Recommend Movie" in Asian Movie Observant and lastly, "Best International Director" in Grand prix de la FIPRESCI.

Unfortunately, eventhough he brought many fames with our Malaysian's culture to International stages, this movie seems like won't have the chance to be shown in Malaysia's commercial cinema. Even it does, this movie will be taken a lot of censorship. Regarding to this matter, we urge every Malaysian to help support on this petition, with this movie not only can be publication at commercial cinema, but we also hope that there won't be any kind of censorship apply on this movie as well.

Thank you.

 

亲爱的大马人、片商、院线, 电检局,你们好。我们是一群来自槟城的电影发烧友。

大马导演张吉安描述童年的电影《南巫》成功在台湾获得金马奖最佳新导演,而国际上更先后囊获3个赛外大奖,即,“亚洲电影促进会最佳电影”、“亚洲电影观察团推荐奖”,以及几乎每个国际著名导演都拿过的国际影评人费比西大奖。

然而, 这部电影却似乎没有机会在大马上映,甚至有指很可能会挨刀剪片,就此, 我们发起这项线上联署, 希望戏院能放映外, 更呼吁大马电影局一刀不剪此片。

謝謝。
