Me and the Magic Door
"Discovering Italian Architecture in Bangkok"
Fai is a 28-year-old girl from Turin, born from an Italian mother and a Thai father. Their parents are now divorced, and her father, now a successful engineer, has come back to Thailand. She returns to Bangkok, her hometown, to write an article on the work of Italian architects in Thailand commissioned by a design magazine to her because of her dual identity. Fai begins to visit places sometimes with a childhood friend, other times with experts on architectural and historical matter. She lets herself go to the evocative atmosphere of these places finding a way to connect better different elements of her multi-cultural identity.
