Please come inside.

Luk.

Luk!

Luk!

What happened?

Luk!

Is this your son?

Mai.

I’m sorry.

Your son is dead.

Mai.

Mai.

Mai!

Wake up!

Wake up!

Mai!

Mai!

Wake up, Mai!

This can’t be true!

Mai!

Mai!

Wake up!

Wake up!

Mai!

(If I’d known that my death would cause my little brother this much pain,)

(that night I would have chosen to go home without hesitation.)

Mai!

CHAPTER 1: HOME

[MARCUS THEATER]

[TODAY’S SHOWTIMES]

(My little brother’s happiness is watching movies.)

We’re here.

Yay!

Let’s get the tickets, Mai.

Okay.

(Phukao really loves watching movies.)

(He gets so happy every time he can convince me to take him to the movies.)

Wait, Phukao.

Have you turned off your phone?

Done.

Let’s go.

How many tickets, Phukao?

Two, Sor.

Pay him, Mai.

Thanks, dude.

Let’s go.

He came up from the ground

and put his hand up like this.

Tonight Marcus is not showing Iron Man.

I know.

Don’t ruin the mood.

Fine.

Tell me more.

(Every time he watches a movie, he’s transported into another world.)

(No matter what movie it is or how many times he has watched it,)

(my little brother is still excited like it’s his first time seeing it.)

Feel free to choose where you want to sit.

Ok.

Thank you, Uncle Piak.

Thank you.

You’re welcome.

(But my happiness is not watching movies.)

(It’s actually watching my little brother watch movies.)

[SANTI MOVIES]

(My family runs an open air cinema.)

(My father and his younger brothers have been showing movies on the road since before I was born.)

(Even though they show movies for a living, my father doesn’t like me to watch movies elsewhere)

(other than his cinema.)

Can I sleep with you tonight?

Let’s go.

Where did you take your brother?

I just wanted to see the movies.

How many times have you taken your brother there?

It’s the first time I took him with me.

You smoke too, Mai?

Phukao, go to your mom.

Phukao!

Come here.

If you want to be bad, be bad alone.

Don’t give your brother a bad influence.

If you want to watch movies at Piak’s cinema that much, go alone.

Don’t take your brother with you.

Dad, don’t hit Mai!

Listen, Phukao.

This time, I’ll only hit you once.

But if you go with Mai again,

I’ll hit you like I did Mai.

Phukao.

Come to me. '

Come here.

Let’s go to bed. It’s already late.

Come here.

[SANTI MOVIES]

Phukao, wait for me.

Are you in a hurry?

Can you carry that?

Hurry up and go to school.

Hurry.

Let’s go.

Be careful of slipping.

Jump.

After you, Princess.

Why is she sleeping her life away?

Hey.

Hey, there.

Come here quickly.

Come here, Phukao.

Go wake Zo up for me.

You got it, Papa Oh.

Go.

She hasn’t woken up?

Not yet.

Drag her out.

Her hair is messy.

We’re here, beloved audience.

[OH’S REPAIR SHOP]

Oh my god.

What’s with the loud noise?

(They have been part of each other’s lives for a long time.)

(From neighbors to friends.)

(Today, they all have become family.)

(But somehow I don’t feel like I belong in this family.)

Mai!

Mai!

Come eat together.

Okay.

Don’t cry, Kongkwan.

I’ll bring the fast car to pick you up after school.

Hey, Zo.

Study hard, okay?

Don’t sleep at school.

I know.

How dare you stick your tongue out at me?

Calm down.

You wanna fight?

I’m in the mood to fight children.

Phukao, take care of your sister.

Okay.

Don’t forget to eat.

Don’t cry, good girl.

Off you go.

Bye.

Bye, Plu.

I need to teach my child.

You always tease her.

Sai, I should go.

I don’t want to be late.

Kiat, let’s go.

We don’t want to be late.

Go. I’ll take care of things here.

Alright.

Let’s go, Mai.

Hey, see you this evening.

Okay.

Drive safe.

Please look after Mai for me.

I will.

Don’t worry.

Don’t forget to buy ice cream for the kids.

Auntie Pum and I will marinate the pork while waiting.

Sure.

Auntie Pum,

please look after the house for me.

Go. Don’t worry.

Your house will be spotlessly clean when you’re back.

Thank you.

Let’s go, Luk.

I’m off Sai. Thanks for your help.

Bye.

What are you guys doing standing there?

Come help us.

Why did you have to raise your voice?

What?

Nothing.

What?

Are you calling me names?

Go wash the dishes.

Hey, we’re off!

See you.

Drive safe.

Don’t be scared, Kongkwan.

This evening, my grandpa will bring the fast car to pick us up.

Yes, it’ll be the evening before you know it.

Let’s go.

Come on.

Study hard, Kongkwan.

Bye.

Bye.

When we separate, take Brother Uncle with you.

You can have him.

Don’t be scared, Kongkwan.

Brother Uncle will keep you company instead of us.

Study hard, okay?

Calm down, Teacher Toom.

Don’t call his parents yet.

I promise I’ll take care of this quickly.

Stop talking.

How many times have you promised to take care of Kawee?

Nothing has changed for the better.

Can you please give him another chance?

Look, Sudteeluk.

I’ve seen you since you were a student here.

You should realize that you’re not a student anymore.

You’re a teacher now.

Take your father as an example.

You didn’t inherit any of his qualities.

Even though he’s the director of this school

and gives Kawee a ride here every day,

Kawee still skips classes without him knowing.

So don’t promise me anything.

You can’t handle anything.

I don’t care if he’s the director’s son or nephew,

if he does something wrong, I won’t let him get away with it.

But Kawee has a reason to skip classes.

Students who skip classes do so because they don’t want to study.

Teachers have to handle them

because their parents want them to study.

This is not a time for you to make an excuse for a kid

who’s been skipping classes since the first day of the semester.

You should be spending your time reflecting on yourself instead

to see why you’re talking back to me here.

[SANTI MOVIES]

Hey, Santi.

Is this thing new old stock or really old?

It’s too old.

Where did you even find it?

It’s full of dust.

Hey.

Is it time yet?

Right!

It’s today!

Yes!

It’s the day we’ve been waiting for!

It’s the day we get rich.

Finally, our chance has come.

I have an aura of a new millionaire.

Get one set each.

Let’s see.

My hands are shaking.

The first prize of January 16, 2013

is

820981.

The first prize of January 16, 2013 is

820981.

I heard that.

You don’t have to say it so clearly.

It’s embarrassing.

Because you share a lottery set,

when you lose, you all lose together.

Serves you right.

Yeah.

Plu.

Won’t you guys take the school bus home today?

No, today our dads will pick us up.

Alright, I’m going then.

Bye.

Today we’ll be the coolest, right, Plu?

Yes, Kongkwan.

Today, our dads will bring the fast car to pick us up.

Wanna eat some ice cream?

Yes.

How about we pool our money?

Since our dads will pick us up soon,

let’s use up our money to buy snacks.

Okay.

How much money do you guys have left?

I’ll go get the snacks for us.

Let’s finish our meal first.

What’s the rush?

Hey.

Have you already started?

How could you?

Hey.

Take it.

That one is more important.

Where are Luk and Mai?

Those two are in a tutoring session.

They’re coming in the evening.

Wait.

What’s taking the school bus so long today?

Right.

I haven’t seen it pass by yet.

Oh my god!

What?

I forgot I promised to pick them up with the fast car.

No!

Oh my god.

Oh, Grandpa.

I just arrived.

Let’s go.

Hurry!

Hurry!

Hurry!

I am hurrying!

Go faster!

Go faster!

Come on!

Are you sleepy, Kongkwan?

Plu, I think our dads forgot about us.

Hey kids.

Why haven’t you gone home?

What are you waiting for?

The school is closing up soon.

We’re waiting for our dads to pick us up.

It’s getting dark soon.

Please wait here.

I’ll go check where your dads are.

Don’t go anywhere.

[PHUKAO]

What’s up, Phukao?

Where are you?

Wait there.

I’ll be there soon.

This car is fast and cool like our dads’.

Yay!

The wind is so cool!

Let’s enjoy the breeze!

What are we dancing to?

Who reaches the finish line first wins!

Hey, wait!

Mai.

Mm?

Can I let Brother Uncle keep Kongkwan company forever?

So she won’t cry at school anymore.

Of course.

You’ve grown up, Phukao.

You don’t need Brother Uncle to keep you company anymore.

You’re such a kind brother, Phukao.

Thank you for giving her your Brother Uncle.

I took an afternoon nap today.

I didn’t cry at all.

I had Brother Uncle with me.

Wow, Brother Uncle is amazing.

Where did you get him, Phukao?

Mai is the one who introduced Brother Uncle.

When I was in kindergarten, I cried and couldn’t take a nap just like her.

Brother Uncle helped me overcome my fear.

When I grow up, I will become as cool as you.

You little boy.

How can a small boy like you be like me?

You’re trying to be cool,

but when you called me, your voice was shaking like you’re going to cry.

Only because the school was scary then.

Don’t hit me!

Don’t come at me!

Don’t you guys want to go home?

Don’t you guys want to go home?

Let’s go, Phukao.

Oh my god.

Everyone, pick up your bag.

Get our bag, right?

Let’s go.

Your bag.

Come, Phukao.

Come, Plu.

Teenagers, remember our promise?

Who is Sor? We don’t know him.

Very good.

Let’s get home, kids.

Let’s go.

Be quiet, okay?

Don’t forget to say thank you before you leave.

Thank you.

Goodnight.

Let’s go.

You better get inside

before your family sees me and gets angry again.

Alright, thank you so much.

See you later.

Thank you, Uncle Piak.

Good luck.

Look at how you walk.

Are you okay?

Are you?

Hurry up, Dad! I need to pee!

Okay.

Go.

Go.

(In the end, no matter how far we’ve gone from our home,)

(we have to go back there.)

Don’t drop them.

Be careful of dropping them.

Get inside.

You’re exhausted, aren’t you?

The dads took the fast car.

I was wondering how they’re going to bring the kids home.

Thank god Luk and Mai picked them up first.

Thanks, dear.

It’s okay.

You’re tired, aren’t you?

Let’s go take a shower.

She’s probably excited after taking the bus.

Come on. Let’s go take a shower.

(The home where you have no parents,)

(but you still have your grandpa and grandma.)

Dad, stop!

No!

(The home that’s super chaotic)

(but full of effort.)

Can’t I play with you?

Give that to me.

Let me help.

(The home full of love)

(and understanding.)

(The home that we want to sleep soundly.)

Phukao.

Let me take you upstairs.

(The home we always want to go back to.)

Hey.

Hey, Pin.

How many days are you staying this time?

Can I sleep in the projection room for 3-4 days?

Be my guest.

When I knew I was coming to see you, I went to stay a night at the vacation home

and found this.

Come here, guys.

If you hear this, please tell the others too

that we’re showing a movie outdoors tonight.

Santi Movies has been showing movies for more than 20 years.

No matter if it's romance, action, or…

Horror.

Horror movies.

What else?

Romantic movies.

Romantic movies.

We’ve also shown movies scarier than horror.

If you’re free tonight, please come join us

because tonight is our last night of showing

and it’s free of charge.

See you tonight.

Well, I’m sad.

I think I won’t sell the projector anymore.

We’ve been using it since my dad was around.

I can’t bear to sell it.

I’ll keep it like that.

Actually, I don’t see why you need to sell your business.

You can keep it and find money in other ways.

If there’s any problem, we can help each other like we always have.

I agree with Somkiat.

You have carpentry skills.

You can build tables and cupboards for a living.

With your father’s inheritance,

you don’t even need a career to live.

He’s right.

You can keep showing movies.

Why don’t you keep your cinema?

No one’s going to come to watch anyway.

And we all have our family now.

You have your repair shop to run

and you’re a school director, Kiat.

I can’t keep showing movies on the road with Grandfather Yo.

Our lives have changed.

Our children and grandchildren are growing up every day.

I may have to stop showing movies today,

but I will always be a cinema operator at heart.

That’s so deep.

Amazing.

Let’s drink to that.

Do you know what you have said?

I can’t believe Pin came herself.

Right?

Hey, Pin.

You’re delivering films yourself today?

Who else could it be?

Give me a hand.

How are you?

I’m good.

Hey.

Even on your last day, you’re still showing by film.

Unbelievable.

It’s Santi Movies’ last night.

How can I use a projector?

You do you.

Boss won’t charge a rental fee this time.

He gave this movie to you

as a keepsake.

Whoa, really?

Please thank him for me.

I will.

Isn’t it cool?

Yeah.

But this is cooler.

This is my gift.

Whoa, the Pin.

That’s my favorite.

Have a seat.

It’s like you know we’re running out of our stock.

Let’s take the glasses out.

Take these glasses.

You know me so well.

This is fine.

Come on.

You’re all here.

Food has arrived.

You guys are drinking that alone?

Wanna try this?

Try it.

Mai, can you roll the mat out?

Do you want this?

Pum.

What?

Where’s Yo?

Where did you take his fast car to pick up the kids?

You’ll see him when he gets here.

That’s the right answer.

That car is only fast in name.

Can I see what you cooked for us?

Here.

You said you want to eat this, right?

Snack?

It’s not a snack.

How can I eat it with liquor?

The refreshments are here.

Let’s get you a big glass.

Hideko.

You startled me.

Don’t think that this place is safe.

I know that.

Wait.

I gave you his life.

My punishment is getting shot.

Phukao.

What is it, Mai?

I brought you Iron Man.

Phukao.

Keep it.

One day, I’ll take you to see Iron Man again.

Where are you going, Mai?

I’ll be right back.

Sleep now.

I’ll see you later.

[SANTI MOVIES]

Hello.

You’re Kawee Sirapuchaya’s parents, right?

Yes.

[MARCUS THEATER]

Please come inside.

Luk.

Luk!

Luk!

What’s going on?

What happened?

Luk!

What happened?

Is this your son?

Mai!

I’m sorry.

Your son is dead.

Mai.

Mai!

Wake up!

Mai!

Mai!

You must wake up!

Mai!

Mai!

Get him out.

Get the kid out of here.

You can’t go further.

Please leave with me.

Mai!

Mai!

You can’t go further.

Mai!

What happened, officer?

Who killed my son?

Your son…

I did.

What?

I shot him.

I killed him.

Take her to the station.

Don’t.

Wait.

My daughter is still young.

Is the handcuff really necessary?

Can we talk first?

Why did your daughter kill my son?

Why did you kill my son?

- Take her. - (Finally...)

(I get to sleep soundly)

(among the people I love.)

Why did you say that, Luk?

Mai!

Wake up, son!

(But where I’m sleeping right now is not my home.)

Mai!

DIRECTED BY KANITTHA KWUNYOO

The cause of death is three bullets of unknown sizes.

which probably killed him immediately.

The suspect and her family are willing to pay compensation

and agreed to be prosecuted.

What are you and your son planning to do?

Don’t let your son near my daughter again.

Did you leave Kongkwan here on purpose?

Phukao’s brother is gone

but he still has his other brother Plu.

I hope you become student president.

I know you can do it.

I thought I wouldn’t make it in time.

Can you go to school with Kongkwan tomorrow?

Why don’t you take her yourself?

You don’t have to drive Phukao every day.

I have to take care of Phukao for Mai the best I can.
