Wai Kru
During a visit to a Muay Thai fight in Bangkok, I was struck by the reverence of the Wai Kru Ram Muay, the intimate dance of fighters before the fight.
The film focuses on the unspoken language between fighters , reimagining the boxing ring not as a site of aggression, but as a tender, meditative, and somewhat erotic space .It is a sensory, cinematic meditation on masculinity, ritual, and the eroticism of discipline. Featuring fighters "Baby Shark" and Lamnamkhong Wor Wattanasuphong.
