How do you make a film about a girl who could never give you an interview, because she’s in a coma?’ asks the Thai artist Ing K. The answer: with the Thai contemporary art photographer Manit Sriwanichpoom and the controversial opposition senator Kraisak Choohavan, Ing produced Citizen Juling, an intelligent and timely documentary that explores the circumstances surrounding the death of Juling Pongkanmul, a teacher from northern Thailand who was assaulted by Muslim women in a village in southern Thailand’s war zone in May 2006.” (Alexandra Seno)
