Their work blends documentary and fiction to critically explore the intersections of gender, power structures, culture, and tradition. Bunsermvicha challenges prescribed norms and systems that attempt to control and define individual and collective bodies through resisting and reframing oppressive narratives deeply rooted in patriarchy, capitalism, and colonialism. Their films offer a more layered and fluid understanding of how interconnected we are, opening up possibilities for re-imagining alternate, collective futures.
Bunsermvicha’s films have been shown in film festivals, screenings, and 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 exhibited and 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), Asian Film Joint (Japan), and Asian Film Archive (Singapore). Their films have won several awards and special mentions from Thailand, Singapore, India, Spain, Italy, Russia, and the United States.
