Unreal Forest


Film: Unreal Forest
Director: Jakrawal Nilthamrong
Language: English - Thai
It’s a difficult movie to understand. The scenes are not continuous. This is a movie inside a movie concept. It shows the tribal culture and their way of prayers and superstitions. The preparations needed before shooting a film and the struggle in shooting is narrated in this movie. Theme music is used and also traditional tribal music. The discussions are made regarding each shot, the placing of camera, camera movements and the locations. Currency used is shown. This movie also shows people don’t do treatment for disease; instead they depend on a sorcerer who words are considered the ultimate. This ignorance made the father to keep the boy in a basket and drop in the waterfalls. The different shots of waterfall are an added beauty.
