The Screen at Kamchanod

A film about a cinema theatre in which spirits live is ideal for this programme. It is a real genre film with all the horror effects and plot twists that involves, but it's also a film with a cinematographic undertone. For instance, at one moment we see an open-air performance of Wisit Sasanatieng's Unseeable. Sasanatieng has conceived a room in the Haunted House within this programme.
The film is supposedly based on a true story. In 1987 in the rural area of Udon Thani, an open-air performance was organised in the Kamchanod nature reserve. There were not to be any real spectators, but several spirits from the forest emerged to see the film. A true story - if you believe that spirits love film.
Yuth, a young doctor, hears about this story later and wants to investigate what really happened. Together with his wife, the nurse Orn, and several friends he manages to find the film that was screened at the time. They then show the film in an old cinema in Bangkok that promptly becomes haunted. Yuth and his friends become entangled in the world of dead and undead. The spirits turn out to have a striking access to the world of film. The doctor becomes entirely obsessed by the film spirits, while his wife becomes alienated from him and seeks warmth with the cinema odd-job man. (GjZ)
