This documentary highlights how a group of anthropologists respond to the challenge of the problem of AMR in Thailand, as part of the Antimicrobials in Society (AMIS) project. The AMIS project investigated the ways in which antibiotics have become entwined in peoples’ lives. The "Following Method" is highlighted and illustrated by the works of the researchers of the Society and Health Institute, Ministry of Public Health. Their research issues are (1) Stateless Tuberculosis and Borderless Labor Migration, (2) Antibiotic Use in Orange Orchards, (3) Data Collection of Antibiotic Use in a Sub-district Health Promoting Hospital, and (4) Following Method: The Moving and Following Research Methodology. The film ends with the proposal about a new identity for anthropologists of the 21st century. The video is available on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/tNgolwhzABo
