Netflix’s ‘Tomorrow and I’ Series, Exploring Clash Between Conservative Thai Traditions and Modern Technology Drops Trailer
Patrick Frater Asia Bureau Chief Science fiction and socially conservative Thailand are an unlikely mix which is explored in upcoming anthology series “Tomorrow and I,” that global streamer Netflix will release later in 2024. Directed by Paween Purijitpanya, the four-part show reimagines everyday scenarios in intriguing ways. The 70-minute episodes cover: bringing loved ones back from the dead through use of cloning technology; intelligent sex robots; how artificial intelligence could move Buddhist teachings on from their fixed traditional position; and how people might come to rely on ‘octopuses’ to get by in perpetually flooded cities. The cast includes Pakorn Chatborrirak, Violette Wautier, Waruntorn Paonil, Treechada Hongsyok, Ray Macdonald, Timethai, Thongchai Thongkuntom, Aelm Thavornsiri, Pongsatorn Jongwilas, Chananticha Chaipa, and Wanichaya Pornpanarittichai. Purijitpanya has previously written, directed or edited segments of 2007 film “Body,” 2008 film “4bia” and its 2009 follow-up “Phobia 2” as well as the 2012 feel-good film “Seven Something,” the boundary-pushing 2021 title “Ghost Lab,” and an acclaimed episode of the “Liberation” episode of “Girl from Nowhere” Season 2. The show was first announced earlier this year when Netflix expanded its Southeast Asian production slate.
