In the 1960s, the United States Information Service (USIS) mobile film units travelled around the northeast region of Thailand showing their self-produced propaganda films to rural audiences as part of a psychological operation. The Community Development Worker (1958), one of their most well-received works, was also filmed in a province in that same region.
TRIP AFTER is a 2022 travel vlog inspired by the field trip reports of those USIS mobile film units. The film revisits the same locations where the original screenings and filming took place, whether to trace, articulate, or fabricate the impression of the past events.
