A film that is built out of waiting. Apichatong keeps the camera entirely still and completely uninterested in drama, he lets repetition and stillness do the work. The longer it sits there, the clearer it becomes that sleep isn’t a mystery or a metaphor or anything you need to solve, it’s jus something everyone has adapted to, including the people meant to be awake. The kind of film that just waits to be noticed instead of asking for your attention, great stuff.
