Veteran Philippine filmmaker Lav Diaz and Edwin of Indonesia are among those to receive the latest round of cash from Purin Pictures as the Thai film fund announced its fall 2019 round of grants Friday.
Set up in 2017, Purin Pictures is a non-profit fund aimed at supporting independent cinema in Southeast Asia., picked up funding for his new project, the revenge thrillerPostcards From the Zoo“The five countries with the strongest projects in the region continue to be the Philippines, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam,” Purin Pictures director and filmmaker Aditya Assarat said.
“Over the past two years, we’ve found that in trying to choose the best projects, it’s difficult to compare the merits of fiction and documentary applications,” explained filmmaker Anocha Suwichakornpong, also a Purin Pictures director. “The production needs and post-production schedules of documentaries tend to be different from fiction projects. By splitting the granting program into two categories and judging them separately, we can better serve the filmmakers.
The next round of funding from the Purin Pictures scheme is set for spring, with applications opening on Feb. 1. Here is a look at which projects are receiving funding.: A drama following the life of Ajo, a violent young man who is unable to get an erection, and his love for Iteung, a girl with great skill in the martial arts.: A film noir about a man freed from prison after 30 years who goes on a bloody trail of revenge against his friend to reclaim all that he has lost.
