The story of Jin and Pod, a plastic mountain, tails, and a dead grandmother, among many other things. What I enjoyed most about the film was that it got more and more absurd as time went on. After a while, I wasn't sure if it was intentional, if they had a good supply of hallucinogens from the local mafia, or if the crew got high on paint. They sure needed excessive amounts of it to make the film burst with so much color. Whatever the case, I enjoyed it. Just the soundtrack got annoying after a while. I guess I'm not a fan of Thai pop.

I don't have much experience with Thai cinema, and as of today, I have only seen two horror films and Citizen Dog, which, however, convinced me that Thailand is experiencing economic growth and that there is a sufficiently educated and large audience for non-commercial productions. Citizen Dog resists the classic templates of commercially successful genre procedures and resembles the experimental flights of European filmmakers. Combine the fragmentary nature and ironic detachment of Tati's films, Terry Gilliam's visuals and poetry, plus the surrealism of Jeunet, add Buddhism and local cultural traditions, and you get Citizen Dog. It is a playful film that is not about the plot, but about the feelings it evokes in the viewer. It is a humorous story of a villager who leaves for the city in search of happiness and, after a series of adventures, finds by falling in love with a charming girl. There are numerous functional and original gags, such as when the protagonist's grandmother, faithful to Buddhist tradition, transforms into...well, you can guess. Although this combination appealed to me and I don't hesitate to give it an overall impression of 80% it is not really a film for everyone and will most likely satisfy fans of the aforementioned filmmakers.

Awesome. Amélie, but even more intense, fantastic and original. A romantic film for people who haven't lost their imagination.
