SUMMARY:“Blood Berries” Documentary Screening
DESCRIPTION:Event Details  \nSEA Junction\, in collaboration with The Issan Record\, presents the special screening of Blood Berries\, a Documentary by The Issan Record on the experiences of Thai migrants in the agricultural sectors in Finland which filled with fraud and violation. The Screening will take place at SEA Junction\, 407-8\, 4th Floor\, BACC from 5.00 – 7.00pm on Saturday 6 December 2025. Q&A session will be held in English. \nSince 2006\, a partnership between Thailand and Finland has sent migrant workers to harvest wild fruits for a 70-day picking season. The program has proven lucrative for many\, with workers\, particularly from the Isaan region\, returning annually to earn money that they hoped would improve their lives and provide stability for their families. Yet\, not all the stories from the Finnish highlands are ones of success. Some workers find themselves sinking into debt after borrowing money to fund their trips\, lured by the promise of a job that they believed would secure their financial future. The harsh reality\, however\, often contrasts with their initial\, hopeful expectations. The Isaan Record shares tales from those who have faced disappointment and justice for the journeys that ended in vain\, burdened by debts despite the modest returns from Finland. \nThe documentary screening will be in Thai with English subtitles\, follows by a Q&A session with: \n\nKowit Phothisan\, Producer\nArchawit In-ha\, Co-producer\n\nWatch Trailer: https://youtu.be/BSiek556BZg?si=43-OwdOZFH_NQAfj \n \nFor more information\, please email: info@seajunction.org or phone/wa: +66970024140 \nThe Isaan Record\, based in Khon Kaen\, is an independent media organization focuses on social\, political and environmental issues in the northeastern region of Thailand\, known as Isaan\, which house over 21 million people.
