Description:

Sri Ayodhaya is an epic historical drama that transports viewers to the vibrant second quarter of the eighteenth century, during the reign of King Phrachaoyuhua Borommakot, an era when art, literature, and learning flourished in Siam. This captivating film intricately weaves together pivotal moments in Thai history, beginning with the glorious period before the eventual fall of Ayutthaya, which occurred nine years after the King's passing.

The narrative powerfully depicts the struggle and eventual liberation of Siam from Burmese occupation, culminating in the rise of Taksin the Great. Viewers witness his establishment of Thonburi as the new capital in 1767, marking a crucial turning point for the nation. The profound story of triumph and tragedy is uniquely told through the attitudes and perspectives of four present-day characters, whose journeys are intrinsically linked to their past incarnations during these tumultuous times. This immersive experience explores themes of destiny, national resilience, and the enduring spirit of Siam.
