“Is this a bit what it feels like to watch a film today? To melt into it, to dissolve into the looks and glances onscreen? Director Apichatpong Weeresethakul finds dream states in everyday places and moments. What happens when we dive down into our unconscious lives as in Cemetery of Splendour? What happens when the lights go down in a movie theatre? We leave our own world for a while, and cross over, into the worlds of other people. The most innovative filmmakers have always wanted to take us into those other worlds.” – Mark Cousins
