Shocking Thai
Combined programme
|
IFFR 2006
More than film makers in any other South East Asian country, Thai independent film makers investigate the boundaries of what is possible. They are more political. Their tsunami memorial films are not obligatory. They are more outspoken. The same applies when it comes to gay themes, or maybe precisely then. They investigate more extreme film forms. Not shocking, really? In Thailand they have very different ideas about that. (GjZ)
