Director’s Note:
As a foolish man, I’m carrying such a confusion of strange things in my head. A Weirdo Never Fever OverRy is a kind of weird, Mekong travelogue about my personal history and stories. Through this film essay, I would like to examine parts of my journey that contain anonymous Thai Super 8 home movies from 1967–1979 that I accidentally found; wonderful experiences of Northern-Southern Vietnam train carriages with my partner; and non-language communications with an inventor in Cambodia combined with strange sounds I recorded and composed along the way to represent myself as a Thai person lost to unconscious colonization.
