Mubi adds 15 Film Foundation classics to Malaysia streaming slate; includes Thailand’s “Mysterious Object at Noon” from Apichatpong Weerasethakul
05 April 2022

Global streaming service Mubi has added 15 restored movies from Martin Scorses’s The Film Foundation to its platform in Malaysia, including Mohammad Reza Aslani’s “Chess Of The Wind” ( 1976), Mário Peixoto’s “Limite” (1931), and Thai indie producer/director Apichatpong Weerasethakul’s semi-documentary, “Mysterious Object at Noon” (2000), about a group of characters in the city.

The Film Foundation World Cinema Project involves collaborations with film archives and studios to restore/preserve films from around the world.

More than 925 films have been preserved to date.

“Chess Of The Wind”, which premiers on 11 April, is about the first lady of a noble house whose death sparks off a battle for her inheritance.

“Limite”, which follows on 21 April, is about three desperate people – two women and a man – at the limit of their existences talking about their pasts.

“Mysterious Object at Noon” is scheduled for October.

The May line up includes Lüfti Ö. Akad’s “Law of the Border” (1966), about a man living close to the Syrian border who tries to stay clean against the forces of circumstance; and Med Hondo’s “Oh, Sun” (1967), about an African migrant in France.

Other titles will be released from June.
