Videos and DVDs
Thai drama written and directed by Apichatpong Weerasethakul. The film follows a group of soldiers as they are stricken by a seemingly incurable and mysterious sleeping sickness that causes them to suffer spiritual hallucinations. Volunteers Jen and Keng (Jenjira Pongpas and Jarinpattra Rueangram) tend to the patients in a temporary clinic housed in a remote, former school in the Thai town of Khon Kaen. While Jen keeps a close eye on Itt (Banlop Lomnoi), a soldier who has few visitors, Jen uses her psychic abilities to bridge the gap between the unconscious men and their families. Meanwhile, doctors at the facility try a variety of different techniques to treat the unusual condition.
