» As a form of mass entertainment, films play a complex role in both influencing public perceptions and opinions, while also reflecting the cultural shifts of society. Consider the state of Thai gay-themed films since the commercial success of Iron Ladies (Satree Lek) in 2000, as well as other homosexual-related movies that have won international prizes or scored at the box office, and the issues of identity, representation and cinema all come together. Recently, Nitchapoom Chaianun's independently produced Pi Chai, My Bromance, about the development of love between a boy and his new brother adopted by the family, filled cinemas despite its limited release.
