Produktbeschreibung

Film, like all forms of art, fulfils a number of aesthetic functions for local, regional and international audiences. As distribution and technological advances make Asian films more readily available across the globe, this ground-breaking book explores the moral dimensions of sexual imagery in contemporary, general-release Asian cinema. It examines debates that arise over aesthetic styles and the cultural and traditional influences that determine the content and impact of these films.
