Syndromes and a Century


Syndromes and a Century Thai Sng atawat, literally Light of the Century is a 2006 Thai drama film written and directed by Apichatpong Weerasethakul. The film was among the works commissioned for Peter Sellars New Crowned Hope festival in Vienna to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the birth of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. It premiered on August 30, 2006 at the 63rd Venice Film Festival.

Its a film about heart, the director told the Bangkok Post. Its not necessarily about love, its more about memory. Its about feelings that have been forever etched in the heart.It was originally entitled Intimacy and Turbulence and was to be an autobiographical look at his mother and father, who were both physicians working in a hospital in Khon Kaen, Thailand. But the director revised that concept when he cast the actors and began filming. The story still focuses on a male and female doctor, and is dedicated to the directors parents, but is set in two hospitalsyears apart and explores both the memories and current lives of the protagonists. ........
