Regretfully at Dawn(HKAFF2024)
In rural Thailand, war veteran Yong dreams of building a treehouse while living out a peaceful life with his bright niece and a black dog who can see beyond the living realm. One day, Yong senses that his mortality is approaching. Director Sivaroj Kongsakul’s sophomore feature following his 2010 awardwinning feature debut Eternity is a sublime and picturesque drama packed with allegory and enchanting magical realism. Beneath its whimsy and compellingly enigmatic style lies a bittersweet message about Thailand’s future being consumed by its past.
