The 9th edition of the International Festival Signs of the Night took place from 22 to 30, July, 2023 in Bangkok.

The festival is a platform which, through short, documentary and experimental films, presents different points of view, views and a critical approach to human existence in the modern world. At the same time, the organizers want to find a common and global language of understanding which escapes the simplifications of the mass media.

Two Ukrainian brothers, Liosza and Dmytro, live and work in Poland. It is here where they find out about the outbreak of war in Ukraine. Each of them will eventually have to make a decision whether to go back to the country where there is the war, or stay in Poland. It is an intimate story about ordinary people entangled in a great drama, about a boy who gains his own voice, but at the price of looking into the depths of evil.
