PRODUCTION OF THE SHORT FILM LEARNING OR SURVIVING
This article aims to addressing educational inequality in Thai society, particularly among students from disadvantaged backgrounds or those burdened with family responsibilities. The project also seeks to promote awareness and understanding of Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4): “inclusive and equitable quality education for all.” In terms of content analysis, the narrative follows Ohm, a secondary school student whose family obligations prevent him from attending school regularly. Despite his technical aptitude and potential, he is compelled to work in order to support his family, thereby sacrificing opportunities for learning and personal development. The story is told through the perspective of Teacher Aoy, who strives to understand and support her student, reflecting the importance of an education system that acknowledges learners’ socio-economic contexts. From the perspective of narrative and aesthetic elements, the film employs a linear storytelling structure. Technically, it utilizes diverse camera angles to enhance the storytelling. Regarding its communicative value, the film effectively raises awareness of educational inequality, while in terms of impact and interpretation, it allows viewers to engage in multiple interpretations shaped by their own life contexts. Overall, the film demonstrates the potential of short films as creative media for social reflection, capable of stimulating critical awareness and contributing to discussions on equitable and inclusive education.
