#CUJOPRIMITIVE twitter competition winners

Earlier in March we put together a competition to mark the UK DVD release of Apichatpong Weerasethakul’s Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives.

A grand prize of three copies of the Primitive issue of CUJO of which only 1000 copies have been published were up for grabs, quite the treat!

We asked you to tell us three famous people or animals you would like to have been in your past lives. Here are our favourite and winning tweeters entries…

If you didn’t win and feel a bit sad then not to worry because you can purchase the DVD here
Uncle Boonmee.. and CUJO PRIMITIVE are part of the PRIMITIVE projects, as are the short films Phantoms of Nabua (which you can see here) and A Letter to Uncle Boonmee (see it here)

Lovely prizes to be delivered shortly, a big thanks to all who entered. You can follow @AnimateEngine and @AnimateProjects on twitter to keep an eye out for the next big give away!

Following on from Jacqui's account of her trip to Thailand for the Primitive shoot, Keith Griffiths has written an interesting piece here on the Illuminations blog about Apichatpong and the Primitive project.
