Uruphong Raksasad, Agrarian Utopia (Thailand 2009)

The consistent abuse of hierarchical structures within the field of documentary filmmaking has led to a redundancy in the (re)production of conventional notions such as “authorship”, “authority” and “authenticity”. Curator Eduardo Thomas presents contemporary experimental documentaries further eroding these seemingly immutable conventions.

Agrarian Utopia

D: Uruphong Raksasad, Thailand 2009, 122 min.

This view of rural Thailand reinterprets our understanding of reality and the idea of certainty.
