So Long, Maesalong, a new feature project by emerging Thai director Snook Thanakrit Duangmaneeporn, is currently in early development. The project marks Snook’s first fiction feature following his acclaimed documentary Breaking the Cycle.
Set in the northern Thai mountain town of Maesalong, the film explores a lesser-known side of the community through a deeply personal story with wider political and social resonance. It examines how larger systems and historical forces shape everyday lives, relationships, and human connections.
The project also marks the first feature film production role for Itt Patiparn Boontarig, who joins the project as producer.
So Long, Maesalong will be presented as part of the “Thai Pitch Program” at the Thai Pavilion in Cannes from 18–20 May. Industry professionals interested in meeting the team can request a meeting via thaipitchatcannes@gmail.com.
The team extends its gratitude to the Department of Cultural Promotion, and all committee members for their continued support and for providing the opportunity to present the project internationally.
