Postcolonial Hangups in Southeast Asian Cinema: Poetics of Space, Sound, and Stability

Postcolonial Hangups in Southeast Asian Cinema: Poetics of Space, Sound, and Stability Postcolonial Hangups in Southeast Asian Cinema: Poetics of Space, Sound, and Stability explores a geopolitically situated set of cultures negotiating unique relationships to colonial history. Singaporean, Malaysian, and Indonesian identities are discussed through a variety of commercial films, art cinema, and experimental work. The book discovers instances of postcoloniality that manifest stylistically through Singapore's preoccupations with space, the importance of sound to Malay culture, and the Indonesian investment in genre.
