Blinded by the Light is a two-channel video installation commissioned by Thai Film Archive in celebration of 124th anniversary of the birth of Thai cinema. The film aims to interrogate double-sided effects of how cinema itself has changed and developed through time, and how it affected both workers in film productions and its audiences along its journey.
