Assigned the task of overseeing the construction of a new resort in the southern Thai town of Pakua Pak, a Bangkok architect named Ton (Supphasit Kansen) enters into a dangerous romance with local hotel owner Na (Anchalee Saisoontorn). While at first Na seems to refute Ton's gentle advances, the pair gradually find themselves drawn to one another, much to the dismay of Na's troublemaking brother Wit (Dul Yaambunying). ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Itâs funny, most critics either did not like this, calling it too thin or boring or else loved it for being delicate,and telling so much with so little. I found myself in the middle, understanding both sides. This gentle, quiet, slow moving romance between a Thai woman who runs a nearly abandoned hotel, and an architect who comes to town to help repair a local beach resort after it was devastated by the Tsunami has moments of great grace and tenderness, and moments that feel either heavy handed, or not quite earned. Thereâs an attempt to capture the spooky atmosphere of a town that has been destroyed, leaving behind thousands of ghosts. That works well when its unspoken and vague, a little less well when itâs made concrete in the form of the lead womanâs angry rootless bother and her friends, who bring literal violence and danger into the story, in a slightly forced way. None the less, a well made, well acted, well shot, thought provoking first feature.
