I wanted to go outside
where it was green
and breathe the air
A short made when Bangkok was close to shut down. Its material is one wish everybody held at the time and nobody could act on. Instead of a large event, that wish is the whole of the story.
So the film walks rather than explains. Up from the sofa, picking up a bag and a mask, through the corridor and the stairs, across the river and out to a road thick with green. It follows that route exactly.
There is one character and I played him. When the same person stands behind the camera and in front of it, the whole route gets drawn in advance. What was decided for this film was not a story but a path to walk.







Where the journey is headed is a local market that used to be full of people. Those last steps are in the film itself.
