Phantom of Illumination
Writer
Once upon a time, cinema was mainstream entertainment in Thailand. Movie theaters in Thailand were the place where families hung out. 30 years ago, there were 140 standalone movie theaters in Bangkok. As time went by, old-fashioned movie theaters are forgotten. Most of them became second-class movie theater showing double feature or pornography and eventually closed down. Thonburi Rama is the last second class movie theater that opened until 2013 , when it had to close down. After the closure of Thonburirama, Rit, a projectionist who worked there for more than 25 years became a jobless person. His knowledge of film projecting became useless.

Lucid Reminiscence
Director
The film Lucid Reminiscence was made for the Thai Film Archive and explored the good old days of the movie theatre through interviews with three people – critics Kittisak Suwanabhokin and Manotham Theamtheabrat and movie director Somkiet Vithuranich. Their faces are not shown during the film. Indeed the only visual stimulation is two abandoned standalone cinemas mostly used to store the paraphernalia of street vendors and children’s playgrounds.
