Title: Film festival downsizing: a tale of two Southeast Asian cities
Synopsis:

In 2008, two relatively new and internationally visible Southeast Asian film festivals, the Bangkok International Film Festival and the Jakarta International Film Festival faced the prospect of cancellation; each went ahead only on short notice and in downsized form, though in each case for rather different reasons. The Bangkok International Film Festival (BKIFF) became very quickly an especially relevant and visible showcase for new Southeast Asian cinemas and new Thai cinema in particular right at a time when these were experiencing new growth and starting to garner international interest.
