User review:
full disclosure: I am an exec producer of the film
That said, I only saw a full cut of the film at Bucheon, where we took the Netpac award.
It’s a slow, detailed study of life in a small corner of rural Thailand’s Esaarn, which is about as far off the map as you can get in Thailand.
And there are ghosts.
And there is blood.
I won’t give away any more than that, other than to say that it’s a very, very easy picture to watch.
