25th San Francisco International Asian American Film Festival: SFIAAF starting Mar15 to 25, 2007. This year only one Thai movie will be shown at the festival - "Syndromes and a Century". Syndromes tells two love stories 40 years apart, both set in hospitals, seemingly separate, though mutually referential. In the first, the doctors Toey and Nohng are drawn to each other as if through karmic dalliance. In the second, a monk who dreams of being a rock deejay and a dentist who favors rural love songs act out an ancient attraction, as if through reprised associations.
