Apichatpong Weerasethakul on Memories

Geboren in Bangkok wuchs Apichatpong Weerasethakul in Khon Kaen im Nordosten Thailands auf. Er studierte Architektur in Thailand und Film in Chicago. Zunächst wurden seine Arbeiten vor allem in Galerien und Museen ausgestellt, bis er schließlich seinen Weg ins Kino machte. Im Jahr 2010 gewann er die Goldene Palme bei den Internationalen Filmfestspielen von Cannes. Die meisten seiner Filme handeln von sehr persönlichen Erinnerungen. Mit uns hat Apichatpong Weerasethakul über das Erinnern von Filmen und das Verfilmen von Erinnerungen gesprochen.
