For them we are all the same, no differences. We act with complete conformity, renouncing individual liberty of choice. Without doubting in what we do we allow ourselves to be dragged along by the current. At times we feel the narrowing of our field of consciousness; It's time to make an escape.

A maturation trip, the childish nightmare of K. In a wooden house, she revives her childhood's fears and desires and experiences her sexual awakening. A dreamy wandering constructed by the tale of three little pigs, a distorted view of her own family.

It’s night time in some city. The huge advertising signs climbed on top of the buildings seem to become alive when car lights reflect on them. Anything can be interesting as long as you know how to see it.

A Tale of Heaven |

“A Tale of Heaven” is dedicated to the artist’s dead father, who wanted his son to scatter his ashes in the woods, but a monk instructed him to scatter his father’s remains at sea. By making this film, Phuttipong was finally able to fulfill his father’s last wish. In the last sequence we see a pictorial collage of tropical vegetation that is soon covered by thick ashes slowly falling down from the sky.

The collision between a man and a woman gives birth to an aquatic confinement. The woman indulges in a subtle and gracious existence. The fusion with what nature awakes on her impels to develop in new worlds, worlds of hunger, survival, laxity; an all the most sublime reality. A new life is generated; moves, breaths, flows in a place of embryonic echoes. The arousing of the touch at the earth’s material complexity obliges her to confront her own ephemeral condition and the destructive power of creation. The man appears and disappears.
