Pom Bunsermvicha (they / them, b. 1993) is an independent filmmaker based in Bangkok, Thailand.

As a non-binary artist, they challenge prescribed norms and systems that attempt to control and define individual and collective bodies. Their work often blends documentary elements with fiction, and explores gender, power structures, culture and tradition. Through resisting and reframing oppressive narratives deeply rooted in patriarchy, capitalism, and colonialism, their films offer a more layered and fluid understanding of our interconnectedness.

Bunsermvicha’s films have been shown in film festivals, screenings, exhibitions across Southeast Asia and abroad, including Locarno Film Festival, International Film Festival Rotterdam, MoMA’s Doc Fortnight, Festival du Nouveau Cinéma, BFI London Film Festival, Hamburg International Short Film Festival, Stockholm International Film Festival, Uppsala International Short Film Festival, Clermont-Ferrand Short Film Festival, IndieLisboa International Film Festival, Singapore International Film Festival, and SeaShorts.

Their works have been featured at internationally distinguished institutions, including Conversations at the Edge at Gene Siskel Film Center (Chicago), UCLA Film and Television Archive and Center for the Study of Women (Los Angeles), Le Fresnoy – National Studio of Contemporary Arts (France), Barbican Centre (London), Zurich University of the Arts (Switzerland), Asian Film Joint (Japan), and Asian Film Archive (Singapore). Their films have won several awards and special mentions from the United States, Spain, Italy, India, Singapore, Russia and Thailand.

Bunsermvicha is a graduate of Brown University’s department of Modern Culture and Media. They are an alumni of Berlinale Talents and Open Doors Lab.
