More local film-makers tackle sex and nudity

"Dr Tan says: 'A common approach to sex in many of these Singapore films has been the idea of sexual repression, where a materialistic, rigid, conservative and authoritarian culture is presented as a severe constraint on authentic human creativity and the erotic impulses.'

Or as Mr Zhang put it: 'The sex depicted is usually quite depressing and is very stark.'"


Haha, academic-speak.
