Buddhistdoor Quote for Today: Ajahn Chah (1918–1992)

Meditation means to make the mind peaceful in order to let wisdom arise. This requires that we practice with body and mind in order to see and know the sense impressions of form, sound, taste, smell, touch and mental formations. — Ajahn Chah (1918–1992)

My friend & one of my first #filmmaking mentors here(Victoria) was Jordan. He's married to one of my Filipino friend's cousins & is a solid human being. Jordan saved me from being scammed & manipulated by shady people in film industry here. He used to loan me gear for free to help support me when I was still in the film industry.

Bangkok Girl is a #DocumentaryFilm that was both produced and directed by Jordan Clark. It's a #LowBudgetFilm, having cost $10,000 to produce, and takes #SexTourism in #Bangkok as its subject.

Bangkok Girl is 43 minutes long and focuses on Pla (full name: Sirirat Rapsithorn), a #bargirl who is 19 years old and who guides Clark through the city. The #DocFilm explores Pla's background and how she came to be where she is. Pla began working as a bargirl at the age of 13, and, while she had managed to avoid being forced into #prostitution up until the point that the documentary was filmed, the film suggests that she will eventually be forcibly prostituted.

In November 2005, the film aired on "The Lens", a program on Canada's #CBC Television. Sweden's #SverigesTelevision also aired the film.
