The 13th International Conference on Thai Studies, at Chiang Mai’s International Exhibition and Convention Centre, will include three days of film screenings. The Strange Facts of an Estranged Land begins on 16th July with A Thai Society Through a Cinematic Perspective, a programme of short films selected and introduced by Apichatpong Weerasethakul.
Anocha Suwichakornpong’s By the Time It Gets Dark (ดาวคะนอง) and Patporn Phoothong’s documentary Respectfully Yours (ดวยความนบถอ), will be shown on 17th July; both films are responses to the 6th October 1976 Thammasat University massacre, and they will be followed by The Forgotten, a discussion about how that event has been marginalised in the past forty years. On 18th July, Nontawat Numbenchapol will introduce a screening of his documentary By the River (สายน้ำติดเชื้อ).
