Railway Sleepers Trailer (2017)

Trailer for the documentary Railway Sleepers, also known as Mon Rot Fai. Docu screened at the Melbourne International Film Festival.

Eight years in the making, the debut work from Thai filmmaker Sompot Chidgasornpongse – who studied under James Benning and served as assistant director on many of Apichatpong Weerasethakul's films; the latter returning the favour here as a producer – takes audiences on a journey on board the Thai railway, playing witness to an entire cross-section of the population in the process.
