Watch To Infinity and Beyond For Free
To Infinity and Beyond
To infinity and Beyond combines documented footage with fictional narratives. The film consists of two parts made up of the same footage but narrated from two different, yet related, perspectives. The footage captures the activities of villagers in a Thai ceremonial tradition called 'Boon Bung Fai'. The objective of the ceremony, though quite forgotten, is to worship the sky and beg for the rain. The film explores juxtaposition between documentary and fiction; silence and sound; folk tale and modern-day news reporting, as well as relationships between man and nature, earth and sky, dream and reality, east and west, and most importantly, the past and the present that will lead us to the future.

Stylish but barely mediocre overall
This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
