Apa Khabar Orang Kampung

Alternative title
Village People Radio Show
Synopsis
Documentary. Former members of the 10th Regiment of the outlawed Communist Party of Malaya, now living in exile as farmers in Thailand on the Narathuwat-Kelantan border, tell their story of the decades-long guerilla war. A radio soap opera drama, a Thai version a The Winter’s Tale, functions as a parable of the country’s relationship with the Party, being the story of a king who accuses his pregnant wife of adultery and jails her.
