A woman died and could only return in the form of a vacuum cleaner to keep close to her husband and to her husband. Yes, you read it correctly! Thai writer director ratchapoom boonbunchachoke A useful ghostpremiered in the lineup of Cannes Critics Week during Saturday's Cannes Film Festival, is a ghost story, but more.
Nat died of dust pollution and her husband was consumed by grief in March. “When he discovered that his wife’s spirit was reincarnated in a vacuum cleaner, his daily life was turned upside down.”Red Aninsri; or, tip feet on the still trembling Berlin wall). "Although it seems ridiculous, their bond is rekindled more than ever. But it doesn't like everyone. His family is still troubled by the accidental death of factory workers, rejecting this supernatural relationship. To prove their love, Nat (Nat)
Thai actress, influencer and models Davika Hoorne and Witsarut Himmarat are the couples in the movies of 185 Bangkok-based movies, and best friends are always dealing with international sales. The ensemble cast also includes Apasiri Nitibhon, Wanlop Rungkumjud and Wisarut Homhuan.
The film is inspired by the famous ghost story Mae Nak in Thai folklore. As the story develops, a young woman has immortal love for her husband. When she became pregnant, he was sent to the Thai army. After the injury, he had to rebuild his health while his wife and their children died during childbirth. When the man returns home, he finds his loving wife and children waiting for him, ignoring the warning from his neighbors that he lives with the ghost.
Boonbunchachoke told thr. “I’m interested in socio-political issues.
This movie is also a call from the past without sweeping the carpet. “In Thailand, there are a lot of villain’s history that has been forgotten,” Boonbunchachoke shared. People often try to stay away from or exercise ghosts as if they are trying to erase a disturbing past. But we should probably talk more about the past and this marginalized history, as it can be returned in a more malicious form. As humans, maybe we owe ghosts. We need to listen to them and respond to them. ”
Various plans were made for shooting scenes with vacuum. "We have two models of vacuum cleaners," the director explained. "One person has an electric motor inside so that we can control it remotely. But it can move on the ground, but it can't move the hose. In a regular scenario, we just decide one of the two torso positions: head-up (or not). However, the movement of the hose needs to be handled manually by three people, and we then removed this in late production."
As he continues to develop the story, vacuum's choice comes to Boonbunchachoke. "Initially, I thought she appeared in the ghost in human form," he recalls. "Usually, in cinemas, people visualize ghosts in different forms. They just float around or have no feet. Or they are human, but translucent. Sometimes they don't appear at all, but are manifested by sound. In another tradition, ghosts don't have invisible at all, but move things in your home."
He ended up liked the idea that ghosts could be placed in furniture or appliances. "Choose a vacuum cleaner is related to very Thai," Boonbunchachoke explained. "In Thailand, dust pollution is real. People have been talking about it for about 10 years. But 'dust' also has another meaning in (Thailand). When you call someone, it means they are trivial, such as dust, which can be shot, swept, swept, swept away, wiped away by people of power, which means that people who are incapable of control their lives."
