SUMMARY:Day 2 |  Forest Cinema
DESCRIPTION:Three films selected from the two editions of Ghost\, a triennial video and performance art series in Bangkok\, that show how natural and manufactured subjects can haunt and possess novel forms of life and knowledge. \nMangosteen dir Tulapop Saenjaroen (Thailand 2022: 39 min – still above) \nMangosteen tells the story of a young man who returns to his hometown\, where his sister runs a fruit processing factory. But the more he tries to involve himself in the fruit juice business\, the less he feels needed there and eventually decides to return to his old hobby\, writing a violent\, psychic\, irrational\, abstract\, gory\, and unrealistic novel … \nWa’anak Witu Watu dir Natasha Tontey (Indonesia\, 2021: 24 min) \nResearched on the North Sulawesi\, Wa’anak Witu Watu investigates the fiction\, myth\, and cosmology of the native Minahasan and their relation to the geo entity stone from which all life came. \nBlue dir Apichatpong Weerasethakul (Thailand/France 2018: 12 min) \nAs an insomniac tries to sleep\, we slip in and out of her visual worlds and realities.

SUMMARY:Goodbye Julia: dir Mohamed Kordofani (2023)
DESCRIPTION:Mona is a retired singer in a tense marriage in Northern Sudan. Wracked by guilt after covering up a murder\, she tries to make amends by taking in the dead man’s southern Sudanese widow\, Julia\, and her son\, Daniel. Mona can’t confess her transgressions to Julia\, so she tries to adjust to a new status quo — but the country’s turmoil is going to find its way into her home and make her come face to face with her sins … The Cineuropa review said: “Mohamed Kordofani offers up wonderful snapshots\, overviews and explanations of all the nuances of the acute Sudanese situation of the time”. Recommended. \nArabic with English subtitles. \nThere’s a further screening on 29 December.
