Cemetery of Splendour
(2015)
Directed by
Apichatpong Weerasethakul this film stars Jenjira Pongpas, Banlop
Lomnoi and Jarinpattra Rueangram. A woman volunteers at a small,
rural hospital that is treating soldiers with a strange sleeping
sickness.
I will be honest that
the subtext of this film completely passed me by, supposedly the film
is a metaphor for Thai societal issues but that alluded me. The film
is also very slow and at times feels like it is padded out empty
moments. While this film may have had a lot of critical acclaim I
found it boring and impenetrable.
2/5
