Here is the list of Thai interesting filmmakers this year in my personal opinion:

1.ARAYA RASDJARMREARNSOOK

I saw four of her films this year. They are

1.1 THE INSANE (2005-2006, A+)
This film is a feature one. It consists of interviewing with 10-11 mad woman. It might be described as an experimental documentary film. When I saw it, it was shown on 5 screens at the same time. Each screen consists of 2-3 women describing their insane lives. But if the film is to be shown on a single screen, I think it will last longer than 2 hours.

1.2 THE NINE-DAY PREGNANCY OF A SINGLE, MIDDLE-AGED ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR (2005-2006, A+)
This is a short film.

1.3 FECES, LIFE, LOVE, LUST (2005-2006, A+)
This is a short film.

1.4 GLOME PEE: THE CRYING OF THE EARTH (2005-2006, A)
This is a short film.
