11th World Film Festival of Bangkok


11th World Film Festival of Bangkok

The 11th World Film Festival of Bangkok (เทศกาลภาพยนตร์โลกแห่งกรุงเทพฯ ครั้งที่ 11) takes place next month at CentralWorld’s SF World cinema. It will open on 15th November, and will run until 24th November. (Oddly, the festival’s poster calls it the World Films [sic] Festival.)

Nontawat Numbenchapol’s controversial Thai documentary Boundary (ฟ้าต่ำแผ่นดิáสูง) will be screened on 17th and 18th November. Alain Guiraudie’s explicit Stranger by the Lake (L’inconnu du lac) has also been selected, and will be shown on 21st and 22nd November. Filmed entirely on location, it features a man who witnesses a murder yet falls in love with the killer.

The festival is organised by Kriengsak Silakong. (The 6th, 7th, and 8th festivals were held at Paragon Cineplex; the 5th, 9th, and 10th took place at Esplanade Cineplex.)
