Bangkok Film Festival Spotlights Cinema as Soft Power
Published on 10/10/2025
» Amid rapid changes in technology and audience behaviour that continue to challenge the entertainment industry, the Bangkok International Film Festival 2025 returns in full force. The festival serves as a major platform connecting filmmakers, investors, distributors, and audiences through diverse activities, including international film screenings and “Talad Nang,” a key marketplace where content creators can meet producers, distributors and investors from Thailand and abroad. This year’s highlight is a collaboration with BrandThink to organise a series of seminars led by experts, exploring cinema’s evolving role as soft power. The discussions highlight how film is not just a source of entertainment, but a strategic driver of the economy, culture, and communication. They also open perspectives on how Thai content can expand to the global stage, inspire audiences, and fuel long-term growth in the creative economy.
