Thai film director Apichatpong Weerasethakul will receive a special FICCI tribute in CartagenaThe 57th Cartagena de Indias International Film Festival will pay tribute to the Asian director who won the Palme d'Or at the 2010 Cannes Festival, among many other awards. His work, usually based on non-linear narratives and a strong sense of dislocation, deals with the memory of his country and approaches political and social issues in a lyrical way. Apichatpong Weerasethakul, the filmmaker of the impossible whose films are intimately connected to visual arts, will be in Cartagena between the 1st and 6th of March thanks to the support of Kick the Machine and Kinetoscopio Magazine. He will present seven films, three shorts, an installation and will give a master class in the Salón FICCI. The FICCI wishes to pay a heartfelt homage and express its gratitude to a director who reinvented film and its poetic and expressive possibilities, away from the traditional hubs, and gave a voice to those silenced by colonialism, historical tragedies and rationality. The films of Apichatpong Weerasethakul bring together the most inspired fantasy, dreams, nightmares and ghosts into a same narrative space, following the director's own rules but with an undeniable connection to the culture he thrives on. Through his company, Kick the Machine, he promotes a daringly independent kind of films and, in his own work, he uses elements taken from the dramatic structures of his country's radio and TV shows as well as from comics and old movies. His stories are inspired by the ways of life and the cultural and spiritual values of the small villages of his country, and he often works with non-professional actors and improvised dialogues in order to explore the limits between documentary and fiction.
