Uncle

I have been here for a while.

I want to see a movie about your life.

So I proposed a project about your reincarnations.

In my script, your house is in a longan farm

surrounded by mountains.

But here there are endless plains and rice fields.

Last week, i met a man i thought was your son.

He works at the auto garage.

But after talking to him, i thought he was your nephew

because his father was a policeman

who owned hundreds of cows.

Judging from your book, i don`t think you owned a lot of cows.

And you were a teacher, weren`t you?

The man was old.

He couldn`t remember his father`s name very well.

Might have been Boonmee or Boonma.

He said it was a long time ago.

Here in Nabua there are several houses

well-suited for this short film for which i got funding from England.

I don`t know what your house looked like.

I can`t use the one in my script

since it is so different from the ones here.

Maybe some parts of these houses

would resemble yours.

You screwed up our dialect.

Soldiers once occupied this place.

They killed and tourtured the villagers

and forced them to flee to the jungle.

For uncle Boonme Srigulwong

who has remained in Thailand`s northeast for his past reincarnations.

for the residents of Nabua village

who were forced to leave home.
