Sinopse
As a secularist I've always interested in beliefs and religions as social phenomena. They are one of basic knowledge to understand any society and how different one society is from others. But as we're turning into modernity, many of those things seem to be untraceable. Most of Thai people now confuse ancient ancestor's spirits and communal animism with individualized ghosts and modern superstitions. So I made "Thawathosamat" as an anthropological documentary that rarely happens in Thailand.
