Back for another round of discussing the representation of women on screen with the world’s only film podcast in Bahasa Malaysia! We carry on the discussion by looking at the Bechdel Test, and seeing how much of is actually worthy of further and serious analysis. Then we wrap things up by bringing everything home, as per usual, and considers how such issues relate to Malaysian cinema. All this and more on the only film podcast in the world which can’t really remember it’s own Twitter handle (it’s @tof_show)!
