Don't know what happened but I liked it!

This was a trippy film - to be honest, I'm not quite sure what it was about, exactly, but I think that's kind of the point. One of the scenes that stood out to me the most was when Suwichakornpong incorporated a whimsical clip from A Trip to the Moon (1902), right after a shot of mushrooms we had seen growing earlier. In this sequence, men curiously and excitedly encounter space mushrooms. This unexpected cut, referencing the first science fiction film ever made, felt like a nod to cinema's illusionary nature and how storytelling is always, in some way, constructed.Anocha Suwichakornpong interweaves fragmented storylines with fantastical imagery - glowing mushrooms, children in animal costumes wandering through the woods - creating a dreamlike atmosphere that blurs the line between reality and fiction.Even if I didn't always understand this film, I really liked it. I thought the main characters provided a super heartfelt performance, and this movie taught me about the The 6 October 1976 massacre in Thailand, which I had never heard about before.This film felt emotional and raw, and it made me reflect on history, memory, and how both are portrayed. It left me thinking - about film, about truth, and about life in general.

Confusing but considerably effective?

Fragmented, disorienting, yet beautiful
