Synopsis:

Our world has lost too many traditional art forms. “Pain of Silence” thoughtfully captures the struggles of five traditional Thai artists whose existence has been further threatened by the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Pain of Silence” examines the work of ‘ Hun Lakhon Lek Sippathum Kumnai’ (Thai Traditional Puppets), ethnic group ‘Thai Song Dam’, ‘Mae Phe Tai Hun Lakhon Khon’ (Thai human puppet group), the leather art Grand Shadow play ‘Nung Yai’ (Thai leather craft), and the award-winning blind ‘Phin’ (traditional Thai lute) player Boonma Khaowong. This important documentary illuminates the importance of these traditional art forms and inspires renewed support for these artists and their craft.
