The film continues to garner a strong international profile and is now showing at Toronto International Film Festival, the biggest film event in North America. The title is enigmatic and unusual for a Thai film. He spoke to us about Manta Ray, cinematography, the Rohingya, and the intense distrust of many Thais towards the brown-skinned refugees. Manta Ray is driven by visual and sound; it works almost as an abstract piece, or it's like instrumental music. So most of the films I shot tend to have this documentary look, something slightly spontaneous, and it's the same in Manta Ray.
