For 10 years House RCA has been a safe haven for independent cinema in a wasteland of empty-hearted blockbusters and ladyboy ghost comedies, with THB100 tickets and without endless commercials.

To celebrate its anniversary, House RCA next month will look back at some of the best indie hits such as Love of Siam, Last Life in the Universe and Blue is the Warmest Color, as well as sneak previews of upcoming films such as Boyhood. Other secret, surprise screenings await moviegoers.

Some of the films will show for free, but check House on Facebook for more details. Given how exciting “free” movies can be, arriving an hour in advance is recommended.

Weekday shows will screen in the evening (7:00PM) while Saturday and Sunday will also have afternoon slots. The full schedule and availability of subtitles has yet to be announced, but here’s what we know so far:
