We're continuing our collaboration with the folks from the Freedom Film Network, and highlighting films they are re-releasing on their Youtube channel, straight from their vaults to you, which they have dubbed: 'Weekend Watch with FreedomFilmFest'. This past month or so, the theme has been 'Merdekakan Minda Rakyat,' and we've seen an array of films that tackle censorship in film, music and the arts. This weekend, catch the film "Nasir Jani Melawan Lembaga Puaka" which examines Malaysia’s film censorship history through the lens of filmmakers like Nasir Jani and others. Joining us for this discussion are the film’s director, co-producer, co-writer, Arian Md Zahari, and also Zikri Rahman, who co-produced and co-wrote the film.
