Malaysian Independent Films Now Available On DVD

For those who've been asking how they can get their hands on copies of award-winning films from the Malaysian independent scene, well Da Huang Pictures has just gone online with its webstore.

Da Huang is a collective that consists of filmmakers Amir Muhammad, Tan Chui Mui, James Lee and Liew Seng Tat, and the webstore carries titles by them. At the moment, seven titles are available - Love Conquers All, Flower In The Pocket, Village People Radio Show, Lee's trilogy of Before We Fall In Love Again, Things We Do When We Fall In Love and Waiting For Love, and Three Short Films By Tan Chui Mui. In time,more titles will be available.

Probably the only thing to complain about here is that there's not a lot on the DVDs' specs, eg. aspect ratio, language options, subtitles, extras, etc. But I think it can be safely assumed that ALL of the DVDs are English-friendly.

All the titles are also available at the Asian Film Archive in Singapore.
