Mysterious Object at Noon

Description

Mysterious Object at Noon is a 2000 Thai independent experimental documentary film directed by Apichatpong Weerasethakul in his feature directorial debut. The film is unscripted and uses the exquisite corpse party game as a concept, with the film crew traveling across Thailand, interviewing ordinary people and asking each person to add their own words to a story. The story is acted out and these scenes are interspersed with the interviews. The film was shot in 16mm and enlarged to 35mm for international exhibition. Mysterious Object at Noon premiered in January 2000 at the International Film Festival Rotterdam.
