30,000-year-old cave drawings at 9th Festival |
The annual World Film Festival of Bangkok usually runs for a week in October or November.
The 11th edition will run from November 15-24, 2013.There's not much yet about which films will be featured, though one will be "Return to Burma". There will be a Q and A with director Midi Z.
You can get a taste of the range from last year's line-up. The movies came from Latin America, United States, Europe, Iran, India, South Korea, Taiwan, Indonesia, among other countries. There is always on strong focus on the indie and art end of the spectrum.
The festival will be screened once again at Major's cineplex at the Esplanade shopping mall. That's in the north of the city but it directly on the subway line (directions below). The quality of the screens and sound are first rate--but then, that's true of all the cineplexes in Bangkok.
