The Bangsaen Film Festival will take place at Burapha University from 17th to 19th October. Aekaphong Saransate and Thanakrit Duangmaneeporn’s recent documentary Breaking the Cycle (อำนาจ ศรัทธา อนาคต) is the event’s opening film. The closing film is Ing K.’s Shakespeare Must Die (เชคสเปียร์ต้องตาย). Ing’s Dog God (คนกราบหมา) will be screened as part of the Lan Film strand on 18th October.
Breaking the Cycle is a groundbreaking fly-on-the-wall account of the rise and fall of the progressive Future Forward party. It has previously been shown at A.E.Y. Space in Songkla, and will be screened at the Thai Film Archive in Salaya later this month.
Banned in 2012, Shakespeare Must Die was released in Thailand only after Ing appealed to the Supreme Court. Dog God (the director’s cut of My Teacher Eats Biscuits) was also released earlier this year after a long ban, and Ing discussed both films in an interview for Thai Cinema Uncensored.
