Five Star Production Co. Ltd. (Template:Lang-th) is a Thai film production company. It was founded in 1973 by Kiat Iamphungphorn and is today headed by his younger brother, Charoen Iamphungporn, and Kiat's children, Aphiradee and her younger brothers Kiatkamon and Kiattikul.

Five Star Production has been one of the first Thai film production company to present films in international festivals[citation needed] 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.[citation needed]
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. 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.

An example of collaborating with other international artists 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”).
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 category at Cannes.
