The Ministry of Culture on Monday banned the screening of Arbat, a film about a Buddhist novice who falls for a girl, following complaints that several scenes were disrespectful of Buddhism.
On Tuesday, Arbat producer Prachya Pinkaew, who also directed and produced Ong-bak (2003), told reporters he wanted to know exactly why the censorship board banned the film.
"It's actually a film that supports religion. The film does show monks or novices committing bad deeds, but they all face consequences.
