Ryuichi Sakamoto presents: In A Happy Place

Sandup Rongkup's film enchanted me. The image did not surrender to the music, nor did the music to the image―the film granted the music depth in meaning but also used the music to leap into transcendence. I wanted to share more time with these children on screen. I wanted to listen to the sound of the rain, the wind, I wanted to smell the earth and feel the moisture. The film made me want to join the children on that land.
