Ton, an architect from Bangkok, arrives in Takua Pak to oversee the building of a new resort block in an area that, according to rumour, is haunted. He begins a cautious affair with a local girl, Na, the owner of the hotel where he’s staying – a romance that sparks disapproval for some of the town-folk and in particular, Na’s brother. The mood of the film is transformed as they conspire to destroy the love affair it raises the question of whether the bitter town can ever be wonderful again. Bristling with mystery, WONDERFUL TOWN is a delicately handled, terrifically assured debut from director Aditya Assarat. |
