“The film takes us on a journey that evokes, embraces, and provides a sharp perspective on the world we know, though it is often forgotten and unexplored. In its narrative, the film brings up the theme of eternal death brilliantly, permeates the timelessness of the past, and takes us on a global journey that depicts the timelessness of objects in a new way”
-Jury notes in Arkipel Award 2023

To welcome the 11th Arkipel International Documentary and Experimental Film Festival, we will screen the film An Asian Ghost Story, by Wang Bo, which last year won the Arkipel Award and Forum Lenteng award. The entertaining yet critical film discusses the relationship between ghosts and the modern world of the 20th century, how the hair of ghosts is intertwined with the embargo of hair trading in America in 1965.
