Anocha Suwichakornpong

Born in Thailand, Anocha Suwichakornpong spent the nineties living in England. In 2006 she graduated from Columbia University in New York with an MFA in film. Her thesis, Graceland, became the first Thai short film to be included in the Official Selection at the Cannes Film Festival. Mundane History is her feature-length debut. The film received the support from the Hubert Bals Fund at the International Film Festival in Rotterdam. Anocha believes that film can only be meaningful if it contains truth – and not just cinematic truth. In other words, it must speak about human condition.
