==History==
⚫
'''Five Star Production''' has been one of the first Thai film production company to present films in international festivals since 1976 with [[The War Lord]]. [[Tears of the Black Tiger]] by [[Wisit Sasanathieng]], was the first Thai film to compete at Un Certain Regard at Cannes Film Festival in 2001, followed by [[Monrak Transistor]] by [[Pen-ek Ratanaruang]] that was selected at Director’s Fortnight of Cannes Film Festival in 2002 and [[Last Life in the Universe]] by [[Pen-ek Ratanaruang]], Five Star’s biggest co-production at the time, was rewarded by many awards, including the best leading actor award at Venice Film Festival in 2003.


===Introduction===
The feedback from worldwide audiences did not stop, as constant box office hits are continually released from Five Star Production Company Limited. “[[Citizen Dog]]” was well received and honored in 2005 for best visual effects. Not surprisingly the [[film]] was garnered with international recognition from the 58th Locarno International Film Festival Switzerland, and the Toronto International Film Fest, Dragons and Tigers Series for the Vancouver International Film Festival. Time Magazine even regarded “[[Citizen Dog]]” as one of the best top 10 [[movies]] of the world for 2005.

With our expertise in film, we further the horizon by collaborating with other international artists. An example of this is with the 2006 production “[[Black Night]]”[[ which combined]] the direction of three directors from Hong Kong (Patrick Leung’s “Next Door”), Japan (Takahiko Akiyama’s “[[Dark Hole]]”) and Thailand (Thanit Jitnukul’s “[[The Lost Memory]]”).

2007 marked yet another pinnacle of our [[film]] making success. With the Quinzaine des Realisateurs (Directors’ Fortnight) Cannes 2007 selection for “[[Ploy]]” directed by Pen-Ek Ratanaruang in a co production with Fortissimo Films. It was the director’s second time chosen for the prestigious category at Cannes. Not only at Cannes was the film a success, but also in India for the Fipresci 9th Asian’s Cinefan Fest of Asian and Arab Cinema 2007.
