The results indicate that instead of a coherent regional configuration based on media consumption and production, the practice and technology of co-productions facilitates the creation of a cosmopolitan identity that is being produced by film professionals at regional co- production markets and film festivals. Summary: Following immediately after the events of The Raid, Ram (Iko Uwais) is forced to reinvent himself as an undercover cop in order to provide protection for his wife and child. He is a corrupt police commissioner, one of the three top criminal heads, that brought heat and rivalry against Bunawar, before later revealed to be an ally of Bejo. Thestudy relates these discourses to the larger framework of East Asian media space as advocated by Iwabuchi and Chua, as well as case studies of four co-production markets. Reza is the overarching antagonist in The Raid 2: Berandal and is also the unseen overarching antagonist in The Raid: Redemption, mentioned by Tama Riyadi. ![]() The work sets to provide a coherent overview of four major discourses of co- productions,thecultural-regulatory, legal,financial,andculturalstudiesdiscourseadvocated recently by DeBoer (2014) which sees regional co-productions as technology of assemblage in complexdialogueswiththecultural,financial,andpoliticalflowsinEastAsia. But as a combination of all three, it's unparalleled in recent memory and offers a tantalising glimpse into a post-Bayhem action-movie world. Thus, the goal of this thesis is to theoretically discuss and critically analyze international co-productions and co-production markets of feature-length films in East Asia: Japan (TIFFCOM Co-Pro Connection of Tokyo Film Festival), Hong Kong (HAFF of Hong Kong Film Festival), and South Korea (APM of Busan Film Festival, and NAFF of Puchon Fantastic Film Festival). Matt Risley of Total Film gave the film 5 stars and wrote: 'Sumptuously shot, perfectly paced and flat-out exhilarating, The Raid 2 cements Evans as the best action director working today and may not be the best action, gangster, or even martial-arts movie ever made. Although Asian cinema has attracted widespread attention in academic and critical studies of auteurs and genres, the research on the production and dissemination, especially festivals and co-productions of feature films has suffered from a relative lack of attention. ![]()
