Judging by these images, it looks like the camera is pointing to West.

So, using Stellarium with those coordinates and the correct time zone (GMT+7), this is what I got.



This recreation does not look exactly likek the original video, but I think is close enough.

Recreating the whole day is possible, but it would require 144 changes of time and screen-shots, so I think this will have to do, at least for now.

PS: now I have to change the time zone back to Portugal, or I will become completely confused with the time.



Edited to add that I think there may be a one hour difference because of the change to the daylight saving time.

ArMaP, i confirm that you are right
Using another simulator i got the same result, besides pointing the camera towars West the Sun wouldn't be in the field of sight: even wih an hour of difference the result would be almost the same: it's definately the Moon.
Actually i had some doubts since the start, because it was very strange that the daylight came after ... the Sun setting: South Pole could be strange, but not THAT strange!
