Amir Muhammad's latest movie Malaysian Gods has been passed by the Malaysian Film Censorship Board, after 3 weeks of deliberation!

This is good news as his last two movies Lelaki Komunis Terakhir (2006) and Apa Khabar Orang Kampung (2007) were banned from screening in Malaysia, but were featured in dozens of film festivals overseas including Berlin, London, Pusan and Buenos Aires. Both the documentaries touched on the role of communism in national history.

The one at the back is Albert Hue.The one
in front looks like a communist.

"Why I wanted to do camera work, well i guess it finally answered all the things that i've been wanting to know and wanting to do since young. I got my first manual camera when i was 11, it was a lost first love - reunited. I guess it's the sense of rebel instilled, we make films to show our disatisfactory, or have something to share. It was music for me at first but, Film was the ultimate goal. How i really started making film? I guess it was that one step of Let's try and consistency that had kept it going.." Albert said.

Malaysian Gods

On 20 September 1998 Anwar Ibrahim, recently sacked as Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia, headed a public rally of thousands of people that marched through Kuala Lumpur while demanding the resignation of the Prime Minister, his former mentor. The demonstrators ranged from 20,000 to 80,000 depending on who was doing the counting. A few hours later Anwar would be arrested.
