MDA won’t release Eric Khoo’s sexy new film

If you’ve been going to the Singapore International Film Festival, you may have already seen Eric Khoo’s erotic drama, In The Room

The Media Development Authority (MDA) allowed the film uncut at the festival with an R21 rating, but did not classify the film for a commercial release due to two especially sexy scenes. The MDA states that an edited film could be screened commercially, but Khoo will not be doing any snipping as his “vision will not be demonstrated properly.”

In the Room is a series of vignettes taking place in the same hotel room over many years. 

Sadly, if you want to watch it, you’ll have to head to Hong Kong, where the film will have a commercial release in January, so start packing your bags.
