The Return

Running 5m, The Return (2008) is a film in the 123movies catalog. The cast includes Tulapop Saenjaroen; Tulapop Saenjaroen directs. “The Return” is an attempt by the artist to recall his lost memories of his father who died in the car accident in 1991 when the artist was almost five years old. Personal family photographs from his father’s funeral are overlaid with the imagined voice by the artist himself, fictionalising that his dead father is coming back to life—a strange and moving feedback loop between father and son, between photographic documentation and deteriorating memories, between personal history and its own otherness.
