Country: Thailand
Directed by Pantewanop Thewakul
A very daring movie for the era as presents a positive leading woman role who is very far from what was considered as a proper leading female character. She actually smokes a lot , drinks, has free sexuality , she is independent and modern, she refuses to follow the social norms. Instead to choose for a boyfriend someone of her social class , she finally picks a low educated with poor background boy, who is working as a male prostitute in bars. The movie is even more daring as making many direct references to the students massacre on October 76 , an incident that due the heavy censorship all the cinematographers always avoid to touch
