CGiii Comment

A mixture of newsreel footage, badly filmed porn and badly filmed monotony.

Exploitation and a low IQ are obvious components to this 'film' - a term used in a loose sense...because any ripe amateur could have thrown this together.

It was audacity that got this into a few film festivals coupled with incompetent programmers - it should be immediately shredded - not for human consumption.

The(ir) Blurb...

Two men are in a fishing boat talking. One feels more than one sees that the seawater around them is warm and smooth, teeming with brightly-colored fish. By night, the rubber plantation also comes across as enticing and full of secrets, until lurid reminders of the bloody massacre flash up. This film arose from of a state of shock - about the news, about the subsequent repression in the authoritarian kingdom but also about the debilitating passivity that followed the pro-democracy Red Shirt uprising. It is a radical personal assessment in 17 episodes. An angry protest in the form of a diary, where sexual resistance and erotic fantasies are juxtaposed with thoughtful rummaging through the director's family album, creating a confusing pamphlet. As a young boy in the 1970s, Thunska was already forced to flee Bangkok for the south with his mother.
