This year starts from Sep. 24-30. at Paragon Cineplex and Central World.

 

There is a film from Sweden which was shot partly in Thailand. It should be interesting to see how they depict Thailand this time.

 

Oh, the film is called "Mammoth"

 

I like this director from his work "Fucking Amal".

 

Screening: 25-Sep-09 17.25 SF World Cinema (Theatre 9)

 

Hope to see you there tomorrow!
