After his feature “Mindfulness and Murder” (2011), Thai director Tom Waller found his next project in the form of an obituary in a local newspaper. The announcement was about the death of Chavoret Jaruboon, something of a celebrity in Waller’s home country, since he was the last executioner carrying out death sentences via firing squad. When Thailand’s government abolished death by firing squad in 2003, Jaruboon also resigned. Since his formal appointment to the position in 1984, he had been responsible for 55 executions, all of which were carried out with him shooting the prisoner with a mounted machine gun. In the years until his death, he was a regular guest on TV shows and wrote books about his time as executioner.

How to Win at Checkers (Every Time)
Written & Directed by Josh Kim
Thailand/USA/Indonesia, 2015
The new Thai drama, How to Win at Checkers (Every Time), is the feature-length debut of writer-director Josh Kim. While it has some interesting things to say about Thai culture, particularly their permissive views on homosexuality, it also lacks the narrative focus to make much of an impact. It’s a solid first effort from Kim, but the thin story moves too slowly to build any emotional momentum.
Oat (Ingkarat Damrongsakkul) is a pretty typical 11 year-old boy, who fights with his little cousin, perturbs his aunt (who is raising him), and worships his older brother Ek (Thira Chutikul). He’s a sensitive soul who lost his mother and father at a very young age, and his poor decision making reflects a serious lack of parental guidance. All he has in the world is Ek.
