176. The big durian (2003)


Country: Malaysia
Directed by Ammir Muhhamad

In 'Big durian'Muhhamad , as he likes to do often, explores the complex political and social reality of his country, with humor, irony, criticism , but more than anything else, with deep love for the Malaysian people. Taking as excuse an incident of the country's history he writes a kind of visual essay about the racial politics that were implied by the state all these years in a country with apopulation who has impressive diversity. The Big durian works often as a documentary, as a fictional documentary, as a comedy, as a musical. This is the style that made Mohhamad an unique director in Malaysia and his movies always interesting
