Decalogue 2005: Tropical Malady + Intro (12A) S
Dir: Apichatpong Weerasethakul
Cast: Banlop Lomnoi, Sakda Kaewbuadee, Huai Dessom 118 mins, 2005, Thailand/France/Germany/Italy, Subtitled
Please note: this was screened in July 2010
Weerasethakul, winner of the Palme d'or at Cannes this year, established himself as one of the world's most original filmmakers with this boldly surreal film that pushes the limits of narrative and style. It's a film of two halves, the first a gay romance between a Thai soldier and a country boy, the second a supernatural journey through the jungle where the soldier is tracking a shape-shifting tiger. Lyrical, mysterious and unashamedly daring - this is visionary filmmaking of the highest order. There will be a guest speaker who will introduce the screening and discuss the film's impact and significance.
