House Samyan cinema in the heart of Bangkok announced on Wednesday that it would screen the 2-hour-long movie in May.
Back in October last year, the Department of Cultural Promotion’s screening committee agreed to allow the screening of the film, but gave the movie a 15+ rating.
“Dog God”, also known as “My Teacher Eats Biscuits”, was directed by Samanrat Ing Kanjanavanit, aka Ing K. Singer Krissada Sukosol Clapp, who is better known as “Noi Pru”, plays the lead character.
The movie focuses on a cult whose followers worship dogs.
The movie was first scheduled to be shown at the Bangkok Film Festival held by The Nation in 1997. Before the event, complaints were filed with the screening committee, alleging that “Dog God” insulted all religions and even the monarchy.
As a result, the movie was immediately banned in Thailand. Even movie trailers, promotional photos…
