"Fever Room" features Jenjira (Jen) and Banlop (Itt), two of Apichatpong’s regular actors who also appear in his film, "Cemetery of Splendour". Like the film, this projection-performance presents the layers of reality and fantasy. Apichatpong fuses his memories with the actors’ and fictionalises the narrative. Here the people takes refuge in dreams while their land is on a brink of collapse, echoing Thailand’s present state of military dictatorship.

Uma estranha névoa toma conta de todo um vilarejo. Seus moradores, mesmo que ainda afetados por ela, seguem sua vida normalmente.
First Assistant Director
Soldados com uma misteriosa doença do sono são transferidos para um hospital provisório instalado em uma antiga escola abandonada. Jenjira torna-se voluntária para tratar de Itt, um belo soldado que ninguém vem visitar. No hospital, ela faz amizade com a jovem médium Keng que utiliza os seus poderes para ajudar os parentes a se comunicarem com os homens adormecidos. Um dia, Jenjira encontra o diário de Itt preenchido de palavras e desenhos estranhos. Talvez haja uma conexão entre a síndrome enigmática dos soldados e o mítico local em que o hospital se encontra. A magia, a cura, o romance e os sonhos misturam-se no frágil caminho de Jenjira em direção ao conhecimento profundo de si própria e do mundo à sua volta.
Himself
Celebrated for his minimal, monumental landscape studies, James Benning turns to the intimacy of the portrait in his latest film, TWENTY CIGARETTES. Referencing Warhol’s screen tests, 1930s Hollywood glamour, and the disappearing cigarette break, the film captures 20 of Benning’s friends (including filmmaker Sharon Lockhart, cultural theorist Dick Hebdige, and book editor Janet Jenkins) satiating their smoke cravings. Each shot’s length is determined by the time it takes each subject to smoke a cigarette, and over the course of the film a dynamic range of personalities emerges out of an array of physical characteristics, distinctive settings, and personal relationships to the camera. (Amy Beste and Jessica Bardsley)
Director
'Home Video (Made in Thai Town)' is about the act of recording and its product as a cultural medium. The film explores the relationship between deteriorating records and the disappearance of societal and personal memories.
Assistant Director
A joyful shot recorded by Weerasethakul himself and two young men who become acquainted by filming each other in the back of a moving pickup truck. Though seemingly playful, the short film is a subtle portrait of migrant workers in the north of Thailand.
Second Assistant Director
A story about director Apichatpong Weerasethakul’s parents who were both doctors, and his memories of growing up in a hospital environment.
Production Office Assistant
Taking the recent tsunami in Asia as its starting point, the filmmakers have used the idea of a ghost seen wandering along the rocky coastline of a Thai island and, in a life-affirming gesture, they have invited some local children to direct the film for them, suggesting and filming the movements of the actor-ghost.
Script
One of three films commissioned by the Jeonju International Film Festival in 2005. A couple escaped their family to look for a spiritual tree in the jungle. There is a song at night, a song that spoke about an innocent idea of love and a quest for happiness. Worldly Desires is an experimental project where I invited a filmmaker friend, Pimpaka Towira, to shoot the love story by day and the song by night. The story, Deep Red Bloody Night, was written by my assistant who wanted to reprise a forbidden love story in a more romantic time in the past. I picked a pop song, Will I be Lucky? to convey a sense of guiltless freedom one feels when being hit by love. The video is a little simulation of manners, dedicated to the memories of filmmaking in the jungle during the year 2001-2005. -Apichatpong Weerasethakul
