The Wishlist


High Priestess of the film world Tilda Swinton has been announced as the curator of the inaugural Film on the Rocks – ‘an immersive annual showcase and dialogue for art and film’.

Screened under the stars on the rocks of Thailand’s magnificent Phang Nga Bay, Film on the Rocks will showcase the work of emerging filmmakers, local activities and conversation over four nights and three days from 16–20 December, 2011.

Phang Nga Bay is a national marine park of immense ecological significance with its 42 islands featuring dazzling limestone cliffs, caves and archaeological sites as well as protected populations of Dugong and the Black Finless Porpoise.

Film on the Rocks will also include activities and conversations with local villagers and sea gypsies from the island of Yao Noi and her neighbouring islands, with contributions from Waris Ahluwalia, Jefferson Hack, Andre Saraiva and Olympia Le Tan.
