Piano, the Mexican production company behind Triangle of Sadness, has boarded Jengira’s Magnificent Dream, starring Tilda Swinton. • The project reunites Weerasethakul with Swinton after their collaboration on Memoria, the 2021 film that won the Cannes Film Festival’s top prize. • Details of the new film’s plot remain closely guarded, but its title suggests another atmospheric work from the Thai director, known for blending reality, memory and the supernatural. • Piano will co-produce the film, adding a company with a strong record of backing ambitious, internationally focused cinema. • Weerasethakul’s films, including Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives and Cemetery of Splendour, have earned acclaim for their meditative pacing and distinctive visual language. • The casting of Swinton points to the project’s global reach, while further production and release details have yet to be announced.
