Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive presents a curated film series devoted to award-winning filmmaker Apichatpong Weerasethakul, who will make several appearances at the event.
Tilda Swinton plays a woman whose life is upended by a sonic mystery in “Memoria,” which is screening at UC Berkeley as part of a film series devoted to acclaimed Thai filmmaker Apichatpong Weerasethakul.You don’t hurriedly approach an Apichatpong Weerasethakul film, or watch one thinking you’ll catch up on text messages and voicemails.
The 52-year-old filmmaker journeys to the East Bay for a series of conversations and workshops April 6-11. It’s part of BAMPFA’s months-long Weerasethakul retrospective, a collaboration with the Townsend Center for Humanities in Berkeley. The film series continues through May 12. Weerasethakul’s films touch on a diverse range of subjects and themes — the ghostly remnants of history and oppression, sexuality, nature, Buddhism, the pliability of memory, and more.
“Science is so linked with nature,” he said.” You look at nature with a very open mind and be aware that everything changes and the theory can shift.”“With very conventional cinema you don’t have that luxury of listening and looking because your brain is working so hard to follow the narrative,” he said.
In most of his films, there’s a sense that a rural life can be more freeing and enchanting, even when the geographic location is near or on the focal point of past tumultuous events. For Weerasethakul, who is gay and describes himself as shy, the matter brings up sentiments from his youth.
