Apichatpong Weerasethakul produced Le Jardin de Ma Mère in response to an invitation by Eric Troncy, who, with Victoire de Castellane, designed a collection of jewelry for Christian Dior. In a non-narrative, non-linear style characteristic of the filmmaker’s work, jewels of pink, green and silver transform into animal-like beings that float across the screen, trailed by hand drawn streams of color. Imbued with Weerasethakul’s memories of his mother’s garden, the film is both an entrancing display of color and an intimate, personal reflection.

Apichatpong Weerasethakul's lyrical and mysterious non-linear works deal with memory and subtly address social issues.
Accompanying and complementing the main premise of Sharjah Biennial 10, Plot for a Biennial explores the concept of a ‘conversation’ through printed matter.
