Dziga Vertov’s silent classic
Man with a Movie Camera (
Человек с кино-аппаратом) will be shown tomorrow, as part of Bangkok University’s
This Essay Need No Words [
sic] (บทความนี้ ... ไร้ตัวอักษร) programme of essay films. The event, the fifteenth screening in the
JuBchaii (จับฉาย) series, will take place at the university’s School of Digital Media and Cinematic Arts (at its Pathum Thani campus).
Man with a Movie Camera is perhaps the greatest documentary ever made. It was also screened at
Jam Ciné Club in 2017, and at
The 2nd Silent Film Festival in Thailand in 2015. Previous films in the
JuBchaii series have included
Fear Eats the Soul (
Angst essen Seele auf) and
From Forest to City (อรัญนคร).
