Her in Frame (2026) Movie Script
That woman. I dreamed of her again.
Again?
No, not like that.
This time, it was intense.
Intense, huh?
I swear I saw her in real life.
But when I looked up again, she was gone.
Gone? Sounds to me like a vengeful spirit.
Stepping out of your dream
to haunt you in real life like this.
Hold on, I've got to go.
Huh? Where're you going?
See you.
We're not done here.
He's the one who asked us out.
Excuse me, is the shop closed yet?
No. It closes when I go to bed.
I'm sorry. This one is broken.
I'll wait for you.
I'll buy this camera.
This project is called
Future of Weaving: The Breath of Silk.
For this project, I want to tell a story
through photographs
from the origin of the fabric
to the timelessly beautiful dresses
that have traveled to the present.
That means photography
is extremely crucial to your project.
Who did you choose as your photographer?
As for the photographer,
Kook has someone to recommend.
Yes.
- Kook.
- Yes?
Did you choose him
for his photography style,
or his fashion style?
Oh, but his work is excellent, Noi.
But he's not the one.
What?
Well, I'm not the photographer.
I'm the producer for Tawan.
He's the number one photographer
and is widely accepted for his ability
to bring still photos to life.
But I'm going to call him right away.
Where the hell are you?
Shit. I can't make it. Something happened.
Something huge.
Something happened? What is it?
Well, just make up any excuse.
Get yourself out of it.
Excuse?
What kind of excuse?
Shit. What do I do now?
My goodness.
It's bad!
Tawan has a very severe
case of influenza, A, B, C, D all at once.
Maybe the first Thai to get this combo.
He said he really wanted to meet everyone.
But it might have to be next week.
Good excuse.
I'm off now.
Mint, if your photographer got hit
with flu strains A, B, C, D, E,
then I'll give this project an F.
Not approved.
But, Noi
Noi
I'm so sorry.
You can't just ditch like this, Tawan.
Okay. I'll let you punish me.
Go ahead and suspend me or dock my pay
to make up for today.
But you have to let me do this
important thing.
- Important thing?
- Hmm.
What important thing?
What could be more important than work?
The woman from my dreams.
She appeared again.
This time, in the form of photographs.
I found her on a roll of film left inside
an old camera I just bought.
Do you want to be on the radio,
or perhaps a docudrama?
Look, this is the woman
I've been dreaming of.
Is this a joke?
This dream girl of yours
almost got me killed me today.
All because of you.
Here. This is Mint,
the client you bailed on today.
There's someone here to see you, Mint.
Right this way.
I'm Tawan.
We actually should have met this morning.
Oh, you are the photographer whose friend
claimed to be number one,
but lied about being sick to bail on work.
Doctors these days are brilliant.
They cured your rare illness very quickly.
Well, this is the reason why I had to come
and apologize to you in person.
Regarding the work, I will definitely find
a way to make it up to you,
but could you spare me a moment?
I'm in a hurry.
Oh, wait.
If you leave now, the traffic is bad,
and it's hot outside.
I don't want you to be upset by the sun
in your eyes while driving.
I won't be upset by the sun,
but likely by someone.
Then let me ask you just one question,
and I'll be out of your way.
Is this you in the photo?
A bit too much effort, right?
You generated an AI photo just to talk?
What AI?
I wouldn't go so far
as to forge negatives for this.
I've never taken these photos.
So the person in these photos is not me.
You're right.
The hairstyle, the clothes,
the personality in these photos,
none of it resembles you.
But
Similar? I don't think so.
Not similar at all.
Not even close.
These photos are so old.
It couldn't be you.
Are you saying that
my face is old-fashioned?
No. It's called classic beauty.
Timeless beauty.
The kind of beauty
that lives through generations.
Is that a compliment?
I told you it's not me.
Got it.
I totally agree with you.
What are you going
to do with these photos then?
I want to try to find
the woman in the photo.
At least I know
this picture was taken in Uttaradit.
It shouldn't be too hard
to find the origin.
I'll see you around then.
No, thank you.
But I'm starting to want
to get to know you better.
He's blacklisted now.
In that case, Mint, go ahead
and find a new photographer.
Put that project on hold.
I want to push this project ahead.
Luk Kaew Pattern?
Yes.
This is the first place I want you to go
to trace the fabric.
Going to Uttaradit
shouldn't be difficult for you, right?
Are you sure about this?
The sun should take a break.
Attention, please.
This is Uttaradit Station.
Excuse me. Have you ever
seen the woman in this photo?
That's going to be hard, young man.
It's the old spelling in this photo.
She might even be as old as my mother.
Is it even older than I thought?
I told you already.
Change your target, Tawan.
There's no way you'll find her.
Change the target.
Move to the right.
Ma'am, I have a favor to ask.
Don't stand still.
Show some respect.
At ease.
Let's have round of applause
for our new member.
Hello, everyone. Hello.
Well, are you here to exercise?
- No.
- Oh.
Actually, I have something
to ask everyone.
I'm looking for the woman in this photo.
Does anyone know her?
It's a very old photo. You better ask
the photo shop at the market.
LAPLAE TOWN
NO LYING ZONE
CHAYALUCK PHOTO SHOP
I don't know who this woman is.
That's all right. Thank you.
I hope you find her.
I'm getting tired.
Maybe it's not worth finding out.
Let's get back to Bangkok
and go make some money.
But I think it's worth it.
Unbelievable.
I grew up here,
but never knew Uttaradit was this small.
Then, as a local, could you recommend
some good places to eat?
Just search TikTok
for "So delicious Uttaradit."
"Don't die until you've tried Uttaradit."
"So good you'll cry Uttaradit."
- See? So many options to choose from.
- But following reviews is nothing special.
I'd rather hear your opinion.
Oh, tell your driver there's a good place
about 200 kilometers away.
Once you're done,
head get back to Bangkok.
You're chasing me away again.
How about somewhere close by?
We don't have to eat together,
just nearby is nice enough.
What's better than my own cooking?
Mom.
Mint, invite your friend over for dinner
at our house.
I've prepared a lot of food for everyone.
Mom. He is not my friend.
What do you mean, not a friend?
I saw you two chatting.
Come have dinner at my house, dear.
Absolutely.
See? At first I thought
it was just destiny,
but this is fate.
Oh, please!
I don't believe in that nonsense.
You don't believe it?
No, I don't. Why?
Beware. This is
NO LYING ZONE
And are you aware that the "No Lying Zone"
is located in Laplae Town,
where men like you are forbidden to enter.
- Really?
- Yes.
And do you realize that I can stand here
and wait for you
until you give me permission?
Please?
Let me have dinner with you.
Just buy whatever you want.
I'm only hosting my team.
Outsiders pay for themselves.
How do I become an insider?
Let's go.
Let's go.
Let's have dinner.
This piece is for my idol, Tawan.
Hey, thanks a lot, Joe.
Would you believe it,
I've loved your work since university.
I've hoped that one day
I could be your intern.
You're my idol.
You're being too humble.
Your work is top-tier too.
Plus, you are diligent and punctual.
Right. Don't spoil Tawan's ego too much.
Talented newcomers like you
If you join my agency,
I'll make you even more famous than Tawan.
Wow, all talented people here.
- So, Tawan
- Yes?
How did you know Mint?
- Well, back then, Dad...
- What Mint intends to say is
We're a match made in heaven, Dad.
What heaven?
More like lightning.
See?
Actually, I missed an opportunity
to work with Mint.
But I'm still waiting
for a second chance, Dad.
I'm amazed by her work.
You know, I've never understood
what Mint actually does as a librarian.
Dad, it's called a curator,
not a librarian.
You can't even get the name right.
It's difficult. Who would understand it?
My job is related
to the beautiful clothes that I love, Dad.
I just don't make the clothes myself.
There are so many beautiful garments
made from Thai fabrics, Dad.
My job is to attract people to see them.
To show them how fascinating they are.
It's like this, Dad.
What Mint does is just like
my job as a photographer.
When people look at my photos,
they might feel something
and start to reflect.
It feels like.
I have successfully conveyed my feelings
to the audience.
I totally understand what Mint said.
You know how to play?
If you get to know me better,
I can surprise you even more.
Is this yours?
No, it's my dad's.
That piano is actually mine.
I even won first prize once.
Oh, wow.
Such a bragger.
Whoa!
This is crazy.
What's your deal?
This is me.
You're drunk and talking nonsense.
This was the Arts and Craft Competition
at the Cultural Center, right?
I was in fifth grade.
That was the year
many kids competed
because it was the first year
they opened registration to anyone
without needing to represent their school.
Why did you have
to open your mouth so wide?
Can't you tell?
I went for the singing contest.
It wasn't that.
I forgot a line while I was singing.
After I got off the stage,
I felt so guilty that
I kept practicing over and over.
What song did you sing?
Which line did you forget?
Read my lips.
How would I know?
Hey,
try singing this song.
Let's see if you still forget that line.
Sing together.
Show me your piano skills.
I want to see if the first-prize winner
still has it.
Do you dare?
Wow.
#TAWANMINRead my lips as they say
I want to say once more that.
And it will always be like this.
No matter how much time passes.
Have no fear that I will love anyone else.
Have no worries that my heart will change
I will always be this way
I will for always.
So, did you know from reading my lips
What song I was singing?
Yeah.
I know.
Really?
Thank you to all my fans.
Why are you so intent
on finding this woman?
Something has been happening to me.
I keep dreaming of this woman repeatedly.
In the dreams, we shared a deep bond.
Then I found a camera
that holds the photos of that woman.
So, how far have you gotten
in finding her?
I've only been able to follow
the clues from the film.
Whichever photo clearly shows
where it was taken,
I try to travel to that place.
But there hasn't been any progress yet.
But that's all right.
I'll never give up no matter what.
You better leave. I want to rest now.
Oh, hey.
SIRIKIT DAM UTTARADIT PROVINCE.
Hello, everyone.
I am the headman of Huai Ta Village.
It's a great honor
to welcome the team from the museum.
We can head to the pier now.
Headman, our team only has three people.
Oh, Headman.
I'm here as an assistant cameraman.
Joe,
I think this is
our chance to work together.
Really?
Don't worry. Art will support us too.
No need for that.
It's fine.
I already told you I would make up
for the work as best as I can.
Just give me the chance
to start doing it now.
Your work will be so much easier
with such a solid team.
Mint.
I think we should let
Tawan and Art go with us.
But the boat only holds
Our boat can hold five passengers
comfortably, Mint.
And since they are your guests,
I will take great care of them.
Come on, Mint.
We have a lot of luggage too.
All right, then. Right this way.
- Let's head to the pier.
- After you.
After you, Mint.
Let me help.
Thank you, Joe.
New, help me with this.
Safety first, hangover later, okay?
Man, I drank so much last night.
No one told me we'd be on a boat.
Hey, watch where you're going.
Shut up. I'm surveying the safety
for everyone.
Here you go.
This one fastens easier.
Thank you.
What was that?
Thank you.
What did you just say?
Headman.
Yes?
What is that?
It's the signpost of the temple.
Due to the drought this year,
it emerged above the water.
All right, get ready.
We're almost at Huai Ta Village.
HUAI TA VILLAGE 4.5 KM
Hello, everyone. Greetings.
Headman,
is this the entire village?
Headman, you're such a trickster.
The one-hour ride was just the boat.
Now we're on a tractor.
So hot.
Well, don't complain.
You chose to come with us.
Do you grow durians here too?
It's our main occupation.
People here either sell durians,
weave fabric, or do fishery.
But it's so difficult to commute.
Why do people still live here?
Because this place is our home.
Though the travel might not be convenient,
we can still earn a living.
It was actually
much more difficult in the past.
Fortunately,
the royal initiative projects
of The Queen Mother
came to the rescue.
The villagers had more water sources,
weirs, and agricultural jobs.
Our lives have gradually improved.
My apologies. Sorry, everyone.
Let me check the engine.
Sure. No problem.
- Headman.
- Yes.
We're already at the village.
I think we can walk from here.
Absolutely not.
You are the guests of our village.
I must welcome you as best I can.
Just a moment please.
Hey, Tew. Hurry up.
Tawan.
Watch this.
Hey, you know how to do that?
Piece of cake, brother.
It requires a lot of strength.
So handsome and talented.
I have no room in my heart
for anyone else.
Joe.
It's severe tendon inflammation.
You must rest this arm for now.
Don't worry.
I'll do Joe's work for you.
Just rest. Don't worry.
Good. Then you can work instead of Joe.
Yeah.
Because for this part,
I will stay and take care of Joe myself.
Hey, you come with me
before he gets hexed.
What hex?
Joe, dear.
Look at this fabric.
Isn't it gorgeous?
This is the work of our local ladies.
Is this the Luk Kaew Pattern,
the pattern granted by The Queen Mother?
It is the signature pattern of this place.
The Queen Mother
visited here 11 times.
Palace instructors were sent here
to teach us weaving,
along with threads and patterns.
We were taught various styles of weaving.
Every year, officials from the palace
come to purchase them.
The women in the village, when free
from farm work,
they would gather to weave this fabric.
The weaver must be
highly skilled in stepping
on the treadles to lift the threads.
Because if the rhythm is off,
the pattern will instantly distort.
This is really amazing, Bua.
I am so lucky to meet
a true master like this.
The legacy passed down here
is very precious.
Why are you smiling?
I really like
Seeing someone with so much passion.
And I also like to see you smile.
Because I'm so happy.
It feels like I've met my idol.
Everyone,
how about we take a group photo?
Actually, there are several
beautiful patterned fabrics.
Would you like to take photos
of someone wearing them?
Great idea.
But then,
who should be our model?
This lady right here.
Young man.
- Yes?
- You can take the photos now.
Oh, yes. Right.
I thought this flower
fits this dress perfectly.
I'm so lucky to be
shooting this photo set for you.
Everyone, just pose comfortably.
One,
two,
three.
Mr. Danai. Teacher Kamonwan.
Mr. Danai!
Excuse me. I'm sorry.
Take Grandma Huan back home first.
Mr. Danai. Teacher Kamonwan.
What is it?
Grandma Huan just called you
Teacher Kamonwan, right?
I had a hunch since I saw this photo
that the woman in it might be a teacher.
What Grandma Huan said
might not be nonsense after all?
Grandma Huan, are you home?
We are is here to see you.
Grandma. Those two really came.
I've been waiting for you.
I forgot to ask you earlier today.
What are your names?
My name is Tawan. And this is Mint.
Are you two dating?
No, we're not.
We just work together.
Oh, really?
Grandma, earlier today,
did you call the two of us.
Teacher Kamonwan and Mr. Danai?
Go look at that photo.
It was taken
when I was only ten years old.
Can you see that there are people
who look exactly like you two?
The man's name was Danai,
and the woman was Teacher Kamonwan.
Grandma, could you please
Tell us their story?
I've been wanting to tell anyway.
The year was 1950.
Under the People's Party government,
teachers were sent to remote areas to
teach the children reading and writing.
Teacher Kamonwan was the teacher
sent to Huai Ta Village.
After staying in the village
for about six months,
government officials
were sent from Bangkok
to survey the village's problems
to plan for a rural development project.
Is this place livable for you?
This is the only teacher's residence left.
My name is Kamonwan. You can call me Wan.
I stay in the teacher's residence
next door.
Let me know if you need anything.
Oh, I'm Twin.
And these are Korn, Chian, and Prem.
The one outside is Danai.
He can be a bit nosy,
so please don't be annoyed by him.
Why are you tying fabric
around the tree, Teacher?
To let everyone know
this is the tree we planted together.
Is this an after-school activity?
You really are just like
your friends described.
Is that so?
What did they say?
We're replacing the trees
the villagers cut down.
Since we can't stop their way of life,
we have to do this instead.
When I grow up, I'll tell everyone
not to cut down trees. It's a bad thing.
Nobody's gonna listens to a kid like you.
Thank you, Huan.
From planting one tree a day,
it grew to two, then three.
It's on your face.
Teacher.
HUAI TA HIGH SCHOOL
Let me help.
Your head.
Are you always this quiet?
No.
I'm worried that if I talk to you,
you'll lose focus,
fall off the roof and become disabled.
Come on, Teacher.
Just looking at your face,
I lose focus already.
You know what?
I really love this place.
In Bangkok,
I'm just a desk worker.
But here,
I can be more useful,
just like what you're doing.
If you really think that way
This place must be grateful
to have someone love it that much.
Wan
I have something for you.
Same as me.
I have something for you too.
Wan.
This camera is really expensive.
Please accept it,
and take plenty of beautiful photos
for me to see.
I promise.
I will use this camera only for you.
And I won't let anyone else
take your picture.
You're mine alone.
Can you claim ownership like that?
Wan
Will you marry me?
Smile for me, please.
Teacher,
don't look so tense.
I'm already afraid of you.
The two of you were soulmates
since your past life.
Fate has brought you back together again.
You must love and take care of each other.
I'm sorry, but I don't believe
in these things. Excuse me.
Excuse me.
What?
The battery can't be dead now.
Mint
Hey!
Did you have to creep up on me?
I thought you were a ghost.
I wish you could see your face just now.
You looked more like a ghost than me.
Are you okay?
Why didn't you
turn on your phone's flashlight?
My battery is dead.
Then you'll have to come with me.
- Let's go.
- Wait.
Why wasn't your light on earlier?
Well, I was just playing a little prank.
- Come on.
- Let's go.
Or you can stay here alone if you'd like.
- Tawan.
- Yeah?
What Grandma just told us
Do you believe it?
Which part?
Reincarnation,
or us being soulmates?
All of it.
Sure I do.
In fact, I've believed it
since the moment we met.
Can you stop joking around?
I'm not joking.
From the first time I saw you,
I felt constantly drawn to you.
The more time we spend together here,
the more I believe it.
I've told you many times.
This is beyond destiny and fate.
It can't be anything else
but us being soulmates.
I asked you not to joke around.
Mint,
I'm not joking about this.
I know you might still be mad at me
for missing our appointment that day.
I wasn't mad at you
for missing the appointment.
It was because
Where did you get that?
At my great-grandfather's house.
When I was a kid
I'll count now.
One.
Two.
Three.
Four.
Five.
I promise.
I will come back to you.
I will return to take your photos again.
I didn't even know what I was seeing.
A ghost? An illusion?
But that man's face
has stayed in my mind ever since.
He became the man of my dreams.
As I grew up and realized I looked like
the woman in the locket,
I fell deeper into this fantasy.
I didn't care about any other man.
I waited to see him.
And I believed that one day
I would meet him.
Until one day,
everything changed.
You and that man
share a deep, tightly bound karmic bond.
What do you mean by that, Venerable?
Fate will guide the two of you
to find each other in every life.
Where there is love,
separation follows.
Parting by life or by death,
no one knows.
But if you choose to be together,
you can't escape this karma.
Since then, I tried to forget everything,
and prayed that
I wouldn't have to meet him.
And then you showed up.
No matter how hard I tried to run,
I couldn't escape you.
Mint.
Here's a photographer's portfolio
for you to see.
It's spectacular.
Just take a look.
I shouldn't have let you follow me here.
I should've sent you away a long time ago.
You won't do it.
I know you want to know the truth
as much as I do.
Just admit it, Mint.
We can't escape the gravity between us.
You're so full of yourself.
Do you not believe it's true?
Fine, yes.
I've been waiting for you for years,
long before you found that stupid camera.
Finally meeting you, of course,
I must feel something.
Then just trust your heart.
I'm scared.
Mint,
nothing has happened yet.
What are you afraid of?
Trust me.
See?
What?
How can I be sure?
Everything around us is unexplainable.
Then we will fight together.
Get some rest tonight.
Tomorrow,
we'll go back and ask Grandma Huan
about what you're afraid of. Okay?
Come this way. This way.
Come.
Grandma, you haven't told us
what happened in the end.
How long did Mr. Danai
and Teacher Kamonwan
get to stay together?
Mr. Danai!
Mr. Danai.
What's up, little rascal?
You're here early.
The headman sent this letter for you.
DRAFT NOTICE FOR
ACTIVE-DUTY MILITARY SERVICE.
I'm just going as an engineer,
not to fight on the front lines.
Don't worry.
Please come back to me.
I'll wait for you.
There's still plenty of film left.
I promise.
I will come back to you.
I will return to take your photos again.
You promised.
All right.
If you're finished,
bring your work over for me to check.
The fastest one
with all correct answers gets a prize.
Even though Teacher Kamonwan
was a strong woman,
even a kid like me
could tell that she was deeply saddened.
Until one day,
Mr. Danai wrote a letter saying he would
return to Huai Ta next month.
She went around the village
telling everyone.
She must have been very happy.
But on the day
Mr. Danai promised to return,
he didn't show up.
She went out to meet him every single day,
but he still didn't return as promised.
Not long after that,
heavy rain caused severe flooding
in the village.
Perhaps because
the villagers cut down trees,
just as the teacher warned us.
Teacher.
Where is Huan? I thought she was with you.
Huan is not with me.
Then where is she?
Grandma. Grandma, don't go.
Shouldn't we wait for the headman
and the men to get back?
Where are they now?
They are moving things to the shelter.
It might be too late if we wait.
I'll go myself, Grandma.
Teacher, don't go. Teacher.
Huan. Huan.
Huan. Huan. Huan.
What are you doing, Huan?
Everyone else has left already.
I came to get my books.
Leave them be.
Come with me.
Teacher, my books. My books.
Come with me.
Huan, the bridge is too small.
I don't think it can hold both of us.
You're smaller, go first.
I'm scared.
It's okay. Just go slowly.
You can do it, Huan.
You can do it, Huan.
Grandma!
Teacher, come quickly.
Teacher!
Hey, you little rascal.
I'm sorry.
What?
Sorry for what?
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
Wan!
Wan!
Wan!
Wan!
Wan!
Wan.
Why are you tying fabric
around the tree, Teacher?
To let everyone know
this is the tree we planted together.
Wan!
Wan!
Wan!
Why?
Why?
Even though there was
no reason left to stay,
Mr. Danai never left.
He joined the engineering team
for the Sirikit Dam construction.
He said
he didn't want to see anyone else
die from a flood again.
Unfortunately,
he died in an accident
before he could see his work completed.
This means we really
shouldn't be near each other.
Mint.
I don't believe it,
and I don't care.
If we are destined for tragedy,
why did fate bring us together?
Bringing me here with you.
Learning about all the past. For what?
Of course.
If everything happens for a reason,
maybe fate brought us together
to fulfill something.
What do you mean?
Maybe we can fulfill Mr. Danai's promise.
Will this really work?
The camera is already broken.
I don't know,
but we have to try.
You really came back.
I made a promise to you
that I'd come back to take your photos.
And I will never leave you again.
Don't look so tense, Teacher.
I'm already afraid of you.
Did you see what I just saw?
We did it.
Mr. Danai's promise is fulfilled.
But it's still not real, is it?
I really wish it was real.
Thank you.
Here you are.
One.
Two.

One more photo.
I'm not in it.

HUAI TA HIGH SCHOOL
Hey!
I'm going to miss this place so much.
I'll have to find time to visit often.
Let me know when you're coming back,
so I can avoid you.
Oh, why?
Wouldn't it be better to come together?
Not good.
Whatever you say.
So how about we grab a cup of coffee,
once we're back in Bangkok?
- No.
- Look, listen to me.
Listen to me.
From now on,
wherever you organize an event,
I will be there to take photos for you.
And this time,
there will be no bailing,
no missing appointments like before.
I'll even do it for free.
Is that so?
You bet.
But on one condition.
What is it?
Watch out.
Are we okay?
Hey.
You thought I was going to fall?
Tawan!
Tawan.
Tawan!
Tawan!
Mint.
Tawan.
Tawan.
Tawan.
Tawan.
Don't leave her again.
You must live for her.
Mint, did you find him?
Tawan.
Mint, can you see him?
Tawan!
Tawan.
Tawan.
Tawan.
Tawan.
- Tawan.
- Tawan.
- Tawan.
- Tawan.
- Tawan.
- Tawan.
Tawan!
- Tawan.
- Tawan.
Doctor, how is my friend doing?
He is out of danger now,
but needs to be admitted for observation.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
Excuse me now.
Nurse, may we go inside to see our friend?
Yes. But the patient is still unconscious.
Let's go, Mint.
Parting by life or by death,
no one knows.
But if you choose to be together,
you can't escape this karma.
Tawan
Do you need anything?
Where is Mint?
Give me your phone.
Phone. Quick.
Sorry, the number you are calling
cannot be reached.
Joe is incredibly talented.
How did he shoot these pictures?
It looks as if the fabrics
in the photos are alive.
Based on the quality of these photos,
I'm sure I can get a bigger budget.
Next month,
I'll assign you and Joe
to work on other fabric patterns.
Excuse me.
Mint, someone is here to see you.
He says it's urgent.
Where on earth have you been?
Not answering my calls.
You got me worried.
We can't be near each other.
Mint, listen.
What happened was just an accident.
If it were me
Who almost died that day
Would you still try to be with me?
It's really not that hard
for us to stay apart.
Please don't do this.
Do you remember what I told you?
We can fight this together.
Why do you want to be with me?
- Because I like you.
- You just like me.
We've only known each other
for a few days, right?
You can't even say you love me. Can you?
Or are you saying
it's because of the gravity?
No.
It's only because I look like the person
you've been searching for.
- Mint.
- So you're interested in me.
That's all it is.
That's not it at all.
- No.
- How do you know?
Have you asked your own heart?
We don't even know our true feelings.
Then why should we risk our lives?
No.
I won't take the risk.
Please get out of my life.
If that's how you feel, I get it.
If being with me
makes you uncomfortable
I will leave.
Tawan, are you awake yet?
Hello. What is it?
Did you forget?
We have an appointment
with Mr. Chen today.
The Singaporean who wants to hire you.
I'm not going. I'm hungover.
Just tell him I'm dead.
No way. This client is loaded.
I need the money.
If you don't show up,
I'll send telepathic waves to mess up
your sleep for the next three years.
You'll see. Tawan,
are you even listening to me?
Why do they start construction so early?
If you're going to harass me like this,
I'll go then.
Swallow it.
Just swallow it.
Tawan
Tawan. Tawan.
Gosh, am I going to get this job?
What a shitty day.
FUTURE OF WEAVING
THE BREATH OF SILK.
Yes, Wichai.
Could you check the lighting
on the third fabric on display?
Yes. Thank you.
Could you check this artwork?
Thank you.
How have you been?
I'm doing well.
And you?
I'm doing okay.
I'm preparing to host
a photography exhibition.
It's a collection of photos
from Huai Ta Village.
Really?
When is it?
I'm not sure yet,
but soon.
I'm sorry, I have to go now.
See you around.
Mint, wait.
I just wanted to say
I've asked my own heart.
I don't just care about you because
you look like the woman
I was searching for.
Tawan,
that was a long time ago.
But for the past three years,
I haven't been able
to stop thinking about you.
Why is it that whenever I did anything,
I had to imagine
how much better it would be
if you were there with me?
Why is it that
every time I looked through my lens,
I always saw your shadow
where ever I went?
And why is it that every time
I looked at Teacher Kamonwan's photos,
I didn't think about her at all?
I only thought about you.
The person who I know.
I fell in love with you.
The person standing right in front of me,
not Kamonwan.
What about you?
Do you feel the same way?
If something really happens to us,
what am I supposed to do?
Feel guilty for the rest of my life?
And during the time we were apart,
weren't you hurting too?
I understand.
Then I'll only ask you for one thing.
If the next life is real,
and we happen to meet again
Please
Give me another chance
To love you once more.
Do you think you're the only one
with feelings?
For the past three years,
I've never stopped
thinking about you either.
I missed your photographs.
I missed your jokes.
I kept wondering what it would be like
if you were with me.
But
What if there are no buts?
NO LYING ZONE
What if there are no buts,
no reasons needed?
Just let things happen.
Can you tell me how you really feel?
I love you.
You don't have to wait for the next life.
I already love you in this life.
I want you to be the first to see it.
Close your eyes.
No peeking.
I won't.
Okay, walk straight ahead.
Can I open my eyes now?
Stop.
Ready?
You are the only one
I want to look at through my lens
and in real life.
Smile for me, please.
Teacher, don't look so tense.
I'm already afraid of you.
Again?
No, not like that.
This time, it was intense.
Intense, huh?
I swear I saw her in real life.
But when I looked up again, she was gone.
Gone? Sounds to me like a vengeful spirit.
Stepping out of your dream
to haunt you in real life like this.
Hold on, I've got to go.
Huh? Where're you going?
See you.
We're not done here.
He's the one who asked us out.
Excuse me, is the shop closed yet?
No. It closes when I go to bed.
I'm sorry. This one is broken.
I'll wait for you.
I'll buy this camera.
This project is called
Future of Weaving: The Breath of Silk.
For this project, I want to tell a story
through photographs
from the origin of the fabric
to the timelessly beautiful dresses
that have traveled to the present.
That means photography
is extremely crucial to your project.
Who did you choose as your photographer?
As for the photographer,
Kook has someone to recommend.
Yes.
- Kook.
- Yes?
Did you choose him
for his photography style,
or his fashion style?
Oh, but his work is excellent, Noi.
But he's not the one.
What?
Well, I'm not the photographer.
I'm the producer for Tawan.
He's the number one photographer
and is widely accepted for his ability
to bring still photos to life.
But I'm going to call him right away.
Where the hell are you?
Shit. I can't make it. Something happened.
Something huge.
Something happened? What is it?
Well, just make up any excuse.
Get yourself out of it.
Excuse?
What kind of excuse?
Shit. What do I do now?
My goodness.
It's bad!
Tawan has a very severe
case of influenza, A, B, C, D all at once.
Maybe the first Thai to get this combo.
He said he really wanted to meet everyone.
But it might have to be next week.
Good excuse.
I'm off now.
Mint, if your photographer got hit
with flu strains A, B, C, D, E,
then I'll give this project an F.
Not approved.
But, Noi
Noi
I'm so sorry.
You can't just ditch like this, Tawan.
Okay. I'll let you punish me.
Go ahead and suspend me or dock my pay
to make up for today.
But you have to let me do this
important thing.
- Important thing?
- Hmm.
What important thing?
What could be more important than work?
The woman from my dreams.
She appeared again.
This time, in the form of photographs.
I found her on a roll of film left inside
an old camera I just bought.
Do you want to be on the radio,
or perhaps a docudrama?
Look, this is the woman
I've been dreaming of.
Is this a joke?
This dream girl of yours
almost got me killed me today.
All because of you.
Here. This is Mint,
the client you bailed on today.
There's someone here to see you, Mint.
Right this way.
I'm Tawan.
We actually should have met this morning.
Oh, you are the photographer whose friend
claimed to be number one,
but lied about being sick to bail on work.
Doctors these days are brilliant.
They cured your rare illness very quickly.
Well, this is the reason why I had to come
and apologize to you in person.
Regarding the work, I will definitely find
a way to make it up to you,
but could you spare me a moment?
I'm in a hurry.
Oh, wait.
If you leave now, the traffic is bad,
and it's hot outside.
I don't want you to be upset by the sun
in your eyes while driving.
I won't be upset by the sun,
but likely by someone.
Then let me ask you just one question,
and I'll be out of your way.
Is this you in the photo?
A bit too much effort, right?
You generated an AI photo just to talk?
What AI?
I wouldn't go so far
as to forge negatives for this.
I've never taken these photos.
So the person in these photos is not me.
You're right.
The hairstyle, the clothes,
the personality in these photos,
none of it resembles you.
But
Similar? I don't think so.
Not similar at all.
Not even close.
These photos are so old.
It couldn't be you.
Are you saying that
my face is old-fashioned?
No. It's called classic beauty.
Timeless beauty.
The kind of beauty
that lives through generations.
Is that a compliment?
I told you it's not me.
Got it.
I totally agree with you.
What are you going
to do with these photos then?
I want to try to find
the woman in the photo.
At least I know
this picture was taken in Uttaradit.
It shouldn't be too hard
to find the origin.
I'll see you around then.
No, thank you.
But I'm starting to want
to get to know you better.
He's blacklisted now.
In that case, Mint, go ahead
and find a new photographer.
Put that project on hold.
I want to push this project ahead.
Luk Kaew Pattern?
Yes.
This is the first place I want you to go
to trace the fabric.
Going to Uttaradit
shouldn't be difficult for you, right?
Are you sure about this?
The sun should take a break.
Attention, please.
This is Uttaradit Station.
Excuse me. Have you ever
seen the woman in this photo?
That's going to be hard, young man.
It's the old spelling in this photo.
She might even be as old as my mother.
Is it even older than I thought?
I told you already.
Change your target, Tawan.
There's no way you'll find her.
Change the target.
Move to the right.
Ma'am, I have a favor to ask.
Don't stand still.
Show some respect.
At ease.
Let's have round of applause
for our new member.
Hello, everyone. Hello.
Well, are you here to exercise?
- No.
- Oh.
Actually, I have something
to ask everyone.
I'm looking for the woman in this photo.
Does anyone know her?
It's a very old photo. You better ask
the photo shop at the market.
LAPLAE TOWN
NO LYING ZONE
CHAYALUCK PHOTO SHOP
I don't know who this woman is.
That's all right. Thank you.
I hope you find her.
I'm getting tired.
Maybe it's not worth finding out.
Let's get back to Bangkok
and go make some money.
But I think it's worth it.
Unbelievable.
I grew up here,
but never knew Uttaradit was this small.
Then, as a local, could you recommend
some good places to eat?
Just search TikTok
for "So delicious Uttaradit."
"Don't die until you've tried Uttaradit."
"So good you'll cry Uttaradit."
- See? So many options to choose from.
- But following reviews is nothing special.
I'd rather hear your opinion.
Oh, tell your driver there's a good place
about 200 kilometers away.
Once you're done,
head get back to Bangkok.
You're chasing me away again.
How about somewhere close by?
We don't have to eat together,
just nearby is nice enough.
What's better than my own cooking?
Mom.
Mint, invite your friend over for dinner
at our house.
I've prepared a lot of food for everyone.
Mom. He is not my friend.
What do you mean, not a friend?
I saw you two chatting.
Come have dinner at my house, dear.
Absolutely.
See? At first I thought
it was just destiny,
but this is fate.
Oh, please!
I don't believe in that nonsense.
You don't believe it?
No, I don't. Why?
Beware. This is
NO LYING ZONE
And are you aware that the "No Lying Zone"
is located in Laplae Town,
where men like you are forbidden to enter.
- Really?
- Yes.
And do you realize that I can stand here
and wait for you
until you give me permission?
Please?
Let me have dinner with you.
Just buy whatever you want.
I'm only hosting my team.
Outsiders pay for themselves.
How do I become an insider?
Let's go.
Let's go.
Let's have dinner.
This piece is for my idol, Tawan.
Hey, thanks a lot, Joe.
Would you believe it,
I've loved your work since university.
I've hoped that one day
I could be your intern.
You're my idol.
You're being too humble.
Your work is top-tier too.
Plus, you are diligent and punctual.
Right. Don't spoil Tawan's ego too much.
Talented newcomers like you
If you join my agency,
I'll make you even more famous than Tawan.
Wow, all talented people here.
- So, Tawan
- Yes?
How did you know Mint?
- Well, back then, Dad...
- What Mint intends to say is
We're a match made in heaven, Dad.
What heaven?
More like lightning.
See?
Actually, I missed an opportunity
to work with Mint.
But I'm still waiting
for a second chance, Dad.
I'm amazed by her work.
You know, I've never understood
what Mint actually does as a librarian.
Dad, it's called a curator,
not a librarian.
You can't even get the name right.
It's difficult. Who would understand it?
My job is related
to the beautiful clothes that I love, Dad.
I just don't make the clothes myself.
There are so many beautiful garments
made from Thai fabrics, Dad.
My job is to attract people to see them.
To show them how fascinating they are.
It's like this, Dad.
What Mint does is just like
my job as a photographer.
When people look at my photos,
they might feel something
and start to reflect.
It feels like.
I have successfully conveyed my feelings
to the audience.
I totally understand what Mint said.
You know how to play?
If you get to know me better,
I can surprise you even more.
Is this yours?
No, it's my dad's.
That piano is actually mine.
I even won first prize once.
Oh, wow.
Such a bragger.
Whoa!
This is crazy.
What's your deal?
This is me.
You're drunk and talking nonsense.
This was the Arts and Craft Competition
at the Cultural Center, right?
I was in fifth grade.
That was the year
many kids competed
because it was the first year
they opened registration to anyone
without needing to represent their school.
Why did you have
to open your mouth so wide?
Can't you tell?
I went for the singing contest.
It wasn't that.
I forgot a line while I was singing.
After I got off the stage,
I felt so guilty that
I kept practicing over and over.
What song did you sing?
Which line did you forget?
Read my lips.
How would I know?
Hey,
try singing this song.
Let's see if you still forget that line.
Sing together.
Show me your piano skills.
I want to see if the first-prize winner
still has it.
Do you dare?
Wow.
#TAWANMINRead my lips as they say
I want to say once more that.
And it will always be like this.
No matter how much time passes.
Have no fear that I will love anyone else.
Have no worries that my heart will change
I will always be this way
I will for always.
So, did you know from reading my lips
What song I was singing?
Yeah.
I know.
Really?
Thank you to all my fans.
Why are you so intent
on finding this woman?
Something has been happening to me.
I keep dreaming of this woman repeatedly.
In the dreams, we shared a deep bond.
Then I found a camera
that holds the photos of that woman.
So, how far have you gotten
in finding her?
I've only been able to follow
the clues from the film.
Whichever photo clearly shows
where it was taken,
I try to travel to that place.
But there hasn't been any progress yet.
But that's all right.
I'll never give up no matter what.
You better leave. I want to rest now.
Oh, hey.
SIRIKIT DAM UTTARADIT PROVINCE.
Hello, everyone.
I am the headman of Huai Ta Village.
It's a great honor
to welcome the team from the museum.
We can head to the pier now.
Headman, our team only has three people.
Oh, Headman.
I'm here as an assistant cameraman.
Joe,
I think this is
our chance to work together.
Really?
Don't worry. Art will support us too.
No need for that.
It's fine.
I already told you I would make up
for the work as best as I can.
Just give me the chance
to start doing it now.
Your work will be so much easier
with such a solid team.
Mint.
I think we should let
Tawan and Art go with us.
But the boat only holds
Our boat can hold five passengers
comfortably, Mint.
And since they are your guests,
I will take great care of them.
Come on, Mint.
We have a lot of luggage too.
All right, then. Right this way.
- Let's head to the pier.
- After you.
After you, Mint.
Let me help.
Thank you, Joe.
New, help me with this.
Safety first, hangover later, okay?
Man, I drank so much last night.
No one told me we'd be on a boat.
Hey, watch where you're going.
Shut up. I'm surveying the safety
for everyone.
Here you go.
This one fastens easier.
Thank you.
What was that?
Thank you.
What did you just say?
Headman.
Yes?
What is that?
It's the signpost of the temple.
Due to the drought this year,
it emerged above the water.
All right, get ready.
We're almost at Huai Ta Village.
HUAI TA VILLAGE 4.5 KM
Hello, everyone. Greetings.
Headman,
is this the entire village?
Headman, you're such a trickster.
The one-hour ride was just the boat.
Now we're on a tractor.
So hot.
Well, don't complain.
You chose to come with us.
Do you grow durians here too?
It's our main occupation.
People here either sell durians,
weave fabric, or do fishery.
But it's so difficult to commute.
Why do people still live here?
Because this place is our home.
Though the travel might not be convenient,
we can still earn a living.
It was actually
much more difficult in the past.
Fortunately,
the royal initiative projects
of The Queen Mother
came to the rescue.
The villagers had more water sources,
weirs, and agricultural jobs.
Our lives have gradually improved.
My apologies. Sorry, everyone.
Let me check the engine.
Sure. No problem.
- Headman.
- Yes.
We're already at the village.
I think we can walk from here.
Absolutely not.
You are the guests of our village.
I must welcome you as best I can.
Just a moment please.
Hey, Tew. Hurry up.
Tawan.
Watch this.
Hey, you know how to do that?
Piece of cake, brother.
It requires a lot of strength.
So handsome and talented.
I have no room in my heart
for anyone else.
Joe.
It's severe tendon inflammation.
You must rest this arm for now.
Don't worry.
I'll do Joe's work for you.
Just rest. Don't worry.
Good. Then you can work instead of Joe.
Yeah.
Because for this part,
I will stay and take care of Joe myself.
Hey, you come with me
before he gets hexed.
What hex?
Joe, dear.
Look at this fabric.
Isn't it gorgeous?
This is the work of our local ladies.
Is this the Luk Kaew Pattern,
the pattern granted by The Queen Mother?
It is the signature pattern of this place.
The Queen Mother
visited here 11 times.
Palace instructors were sent here
to teach us weaving,
along with threads and patterns.
We were taught various styles of weaving.
Every year, officials from the palace
come to purchase them.
The women in the village, when free
from farm work,
they would gather to weave this fabric.
The weaver must be
highly skilled in stepping
on the treadles to lift the threads.
Because if the rhythm is off,
the pattern will instantly distort.
This is really amazing, Bua.
I am so lucky to meet
a true master like this.
The legacy passed down here
is very precious.
Why are you smiling?
I really like
Seeing someone with so much passion.
And I also like to see you smile.
Because I'm so happy.
It feels like I've met my idol.
Everyone,
how about we take a group photo?
Actually, there are several
beautiful patterned fabrics.
Would you like to take photos
of someone wearing them?
Great idea.
But then,
who should be our model?
This lady right here.
Young man.
- Yes?
- You can take the photos now.
Oh, yes. Right.
I thought this flower
fits this dress perfectly.
I'm so lucky to be
shooting this photo set for you.
Everyone, just pose comfortably.
One,
two,
three.
Mr. Danai. Teacher Kamonwan.
Mr. Danai!
Excuse me. I'm sorry.
Take Grandma Huan back home first.
Mr. Danai. Teacher Kamonwan.
What is it?
Grandma Huan just called you
Teacher Kamonwan, right?
I had a hunch since I saw this photo
that the woman in it might be a teacher.
What Grandma Huan said
might not be nonsense after all?
Grandma Huan, are you home?
We are is here to see you.
Grandma. Those two really came.
I've been waiting for you.
I forgot to ask you earlier today.
What are your names?
My name is Tawan. And this is Mint.
Are you two dating?
No, we're not.
We just work together.
Oh, really?
Grandma, earlier today,
did you call the two of us.
Teacher Kamonwan and Mr. Danai?
Go look at that photo.
It was taken
when I was only ten years old.
Can you see that there are people
who look exactly like you two?
The man's name was Danai,
and the woman was Teacher Kamonwan.
Grandma, could you please
Tell us their story?
I've been wanting to tell anyway.
The year was 1950.
Under the People's Party government,
teachers were sent to remote areas to
teach the children reading and writing.
Teacher Kamonwan was the teacher
sent to Huai Ta Village.
After staying in the village
for about six months,
government officials
were sent from Bangkok
to survey the village's problems
to plan for a rural development project.
Is this place livable for you?
This is the only teacher's residence left.
My name is Kamonwan. You can call me Wan.
I stay in the teacher's residence
next door.
Let me know if you need anything.
Oh, I'm Twin.
And these are Korn, Chian, and Prem.
The one outside is Danai.
He can be a bit nosy,
so please don't be annoyed by him.
Why are you tying fabric
around the tree, Teacher?
To let everyone know
this is the tree we planted together.
Is this an after-school activity?
You really are just like
your friends described.
Is that so?
What did they say?
We're replacing the trees
the villagers cut down.
Since we can't stop their way of life,
we have to do this instead.
When I grow up, I'll tell everyone
not to cut down trees. It's a bad thing.
Nobody's gonna listens to a kid like you.
Thank you, Huan.
From planting one tree a day,
it grew to two, then three.
It's on your face.
Teacher.
HUAI TA HIGH SCHOOL
Let me help.
Your head.
Are you always this quiet?
No.
I'm worried that if I talk to you,
you'll lose focus,
fall off the roof and become disabled.
Come on, Teacher.
Just looking at your face,
I lose focus already.
You know what?
I really love this place.
In Bangkok,
I'm just a desk worker.
But here,
I can be more useful,
just like what you're doing.
If you really think that way
This place must be grateful
to have someone love it that much.
Wan
I have something for you.
Same as me.
I have something for you too.
Wan.
This camera is really expensive.
Please accept it,
and take plenty of beautiful photos
for me to see.
I promise.
I will use this camera only for you.
And I won't let anyone else
take your picture.
You're mine alone.
Can you claim ownership like that?
Wan
Will you marry me?
Smile for me, please.
Teacher,
don't look so tense.
I'm already afraid of you.
The two of you were soulmates
since your past life.
Fate has brought you back together again.
You must love and take care of each other.
I'm sorry, but I don't believe
in these things. Excuse me.
Excuse me.
What?
The battery can't be dead now.
Mint
Hey!
Did you have to creep up on me?
I thought you were a ghost.
I wish you could see your face just now.
You looked more like a ghost than me.
Are you okay?
Why didn't you
turn on your phone's flashlight?
My battery is dead.
Then you'll have to come with me.
- Let's go.
- Wait.
Why wasn't your light on earlier?
Well, I was just playing a little prank.
- Come on.
- Let's go.
Or you can stay here alone if you'd like.
- Tawan.
- Yeah?
What Grandma just told us
Do you believe it?
Which part?
Reincarnation,
or us being soulmates?
All of it.
Sure I do.
In fact, I've believed it
since the moment we met.
Can you stop joking around?
I'm not joking.
From the first time I saw you,
I felt constantly drawn to you.
The more time we spend together here,
the more I believe it.
I've told you many times.
This is beyond destiny and fate.
It can't be anything else
but us being soulmates.
I asked you not to joke around.
Mint,
I'm not joking about this.
I know you might still be mad at me
for missing our appointment that day.
I wasn't mad at you
for missing the appointment.
It was because
Where did you get that?
At my great-grandfather's house.
When I was a kid
I'll count now.
One.
Two.
Three.
Four.
Five.
I promise.
I will come back to you.
I will return to take your photos again.
I didn't even know what I was seeing.
A ghost? An illusion?
But that man's face
has stayed in my mind ever since.
He became the man of my dreams.
As I grew up and realized I looked like
the woman in the locket,
I fell deeper into this fantasy.
I didn't care about any other man.
I waited to see him.
And I believed that one day
I would meet him.
Until one day,
everything changed.
You and that man
share a deep, tightly bound karmic bond.
What do you mean by that, Venerable?
Fate will guide the two of you
to find each other in every life.
Where there is love,
separation follows.
Parting by life or by death,
no one knows.
But if you choose to be together,
you can't escape this karma.
Since then, I tried to forget everything,
and prayed that
I wouldn't have to meet him.
And then you showed up.
No matter how hard I tried to run,
I couldn't escape you.
Mint.
Here's a photographer's portfolio
for you to see.
It's spectacular.
Just take a look.
I shouldn't have let you follow me here.
I should've sent you away a long time ago.
You won't do it.
I know you want to know the truth
as much as I do.
Just admit it, Mint.
We can't escape the gravity between us.
You're so full of yourself.
Do you not believe it's true?
Fine, yes.
I've been waiting for you for years,
long before you found that stupid camera.
Finally meeting you, of course,
I must feel something.
Then just trust your heart.
I'm scared.
Mint,
nothing has happened yet.
What are you afraid of?
Trust me.
See?
What?
How can I be sure?
Everything around us is unexplainable.
Then we will fight together.
Get some rest tonight.
Tomorrow,
we'll go back and ask Grandma Huan
about what you're afraid of. Okay?
Come this way. This way.
Come.
Grandma, you haven't told us
what happened in the end.
How long did Mr. Danai
and Teacher Kamonwan
get to stay together?
Mr. Danai!
Mr. Danai.
What's up, little rascal?
You're here early.
The headman sent this letter for you.
DRAFT NOTICE FOR
ACTIVE-DUTY MILITARY SERVICE.
I'm just going as an engineer,
not to fight on the front lines.
Don't worry.
Please come back to me.
I'll wait for you.
There's still plenty of film left.
I promise.
I will come back to you.
I will return to take your photos again.
You promised.
All right.
If you're finished,
bring your work over for me to check.
The fastest one
with all correct answers gets a prize.
Even though Teacher Kamonwan
was a strong woman,
even a kid like me
could tell that she was deeply saddened.
Until one day,
Mr. Danai wrote a letter saying he would
return to Huai Ta next month.
She went around the village
telling everyone.
She must have been very happy.
But on the day
Mr. Danai promised to return,
he didn't show up.
She went out to meet him every single day,
but he still didn't return as promised.
Not long after that,
heavy rain caused severe flooding
in the village.
Perhaps because
the villagers cut down trees,
just as the teacher warned us.
Teacher.
Where is Huan? I thought she was with you.
Huan is not with me.
Then where is she?
Grandma. Grandma, don't go.
Shouldn't we wait for the headman
and the men to get back?
Where are they now?
They are moving things to the shelter.
It might be too late if we wait.
I'll go myself, Grandma.
Teacher, don't go. Teacher.
Huan. Huan.
Huan. Huan. Huan.
What are you doing, Huan?
Everyone else has left already.
I came to get my books.
Leave them be.
Come with me.
Teacher, my books. My books.
Come with me.
Huan, the bridge is too small.
I don't think it can hold both of us.
You're smaller, go first.
I'm scared.
It's okay. Just go slowly.
You can do it, Huan.
You can do it, Huan.
Grandma!
Teacher, come quickly.
Teacher!
Hey, you little rascal.
I'm sorry.
What?
Sorry for what?
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
Wan!
Wan!
Wan!
Wan!
Wan!
Wan.
Why are you tying fabric
around the tree, Teacher?
To let everyone know
this is the tree we planted together.
Wan!
Wan!
Wan!
Why?
Why?
Even though there was
no reason left to stay,
Mr. Danai never left.
He joined the engineering team
for the Sirikit Dam construction.
He said
he didn't want to see anyone else
die from a flood again.
Unfortunately,
he died in an accident
before he could see his work completed.
This means we really
shouldn't be near each other.
Mint.
I don't believe it,
and I don't care.
If we are destined for tragedy,
why did fate bring us together?
Bringing me here with you.
Learning about all the past. For what?
Of course.
If everything happens for a reason,
maybe fate brought us together
to fulfill something.
What do you mean?
Maybe we can fulfill Mr. Danai's promise.
Will this really work?
The camera is already broken.
I don't know,
but we have to try.
You really came back.
I made a promise to you
that I'd come back to take your photos.
And I will never leave you again.
Don't look so tense, Teacher.
I'm already afraid of you.
Did you see what I just saw?
We did it.
Mr. Danai's promise is fulfilled.
But it's still not real, is it?
I really wish it was real.
Thank you.
Here you are.
One.
Two.
Three.
One more photo.
I'm not in it.
One,
two
HUAI TA HIGH SCHOOL
Hey!
I'm going to miss this place so much.
I'll have to find time to visit often.
Let me know when you're coming back,
so I can avoid you.
Oh, why?
Wouldn't it be better to come together?
Not good.
Whatever you say.
So how about we grab a cup of coffee,
once we're back in Bangkok?
- No.
- Look, listen to me.
Listen to me.
From now on,
wherever you organize an event,
I will be there to take photos for you.
And this time,
there will be no bailing,
no missing appointments like before.
I'll even do it for free.
Is that so?
You bet.
But on one condition.
What is it?
Watch out.
Are we okay?
Hey.
You thought I was going to fall?
Tawan!
Tawan.
Tawan!
Tawan!
Mint.
Tawan.
Tawan.
Tawan.
Tawan.
Don't leave her again.
You must live for her.
Mint, did you find him?
Tawan.
Mint, can you see him?
Tawan!
Tawan.
Tawan.
Tawan.
Tawan.
- Tawan.
- Tawan.
- Tawan.
- Tawan.
- Tawan.
- Tawan.
Tawan!
- Tawan.
- Tawan.
Doctor, how is my friend doing?
He is out of danger now,
but needs to be admitted for observation.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
Excuse me now.
Nurse, may we go inside to see our friend?
Yes. But the patient is still unconscious.
Let's go, Mint.
Parting by life or by death,
no one knows.
But if you choose to be together,
you can't escape this karma.
Tawan
Do you need anything?
Where is Mint?
Give me your phone.
Phone. Quick.
Sorry, the number you are calling
cannot be reached.
Joe is incredibly talented.
How did he shoot these pictures?
It looks as if the fabrics
in the photos are alive.
Based on the quality of these photos,
I'm sure I can get a bigger budget.
Next month,
I'll assign you and Joe
to work on other fabric patterns.
Excuse me.
Mint, someone is here to see you.
He says it's urgent.
Where on earth have you been?
Not answering my calls.
You got me worried.
We can't be near each other.
Mint, listen.
What happened was just an accident.
If it were me
Who almost died that day
Would you still try to be with me?
It's really not that hard
for us to stay apart.
Please don't do this.
Do you remember what I told you?
We can fight this together.
Why do you want to be with me?
- Because I like you.
- You just like me.
We've only known each other
for a few days, right?
You can't even say you love me. Can you?
Or are you saying
it's because of the gravity?
No.
It's only because I look like the person
you've been searching for.
- Mint.
- So you're interested in me.
That's all it is.
That's not it at all.
- No.
- How do you know?
Have you asked your own heart?
We don't even know our true feelings.
Then why should we risk our lives?
No.
I won't take the risk.
Please get out of my life.
If that's how you feel, I get it.
If being with me
makes you uncomfortable
I will leave.
Tawan, are you awake yet?
Hello. What is it?
Did you forget?
We have an appointment
with Mr. Chen today.
The Singaporean who wants to hire you.
I'm not going. I'm hungover.
Just tell him I'm dead.
No way. This client is loaded.
I need the money.
If you don't show up,
I'll send telepathic waves to mess up
your sleep for the next three years.
You'll see. Tawan,
are you even listening to me?
Why do they start construction so early?
If you're going to harass me like this,
I'll go then.
Swallow it.
Just swallow it.
Tawan
Tawan. Tawan.
Gosh, am I going to get this job?
What a shitty day.
FUTURE OF WEAVING
THE BREATH OF SILK.
Yes, Wichai.
Could you check the lighting
on the third fabric on display?
Yes. Thank you.
Could you check this artwork?
Thank you.
How have you been?
I'm doing well.
And you?
I'm doing okay.
I'm preparing to host
a photography exhibition.
It's a collection of photos
from Huai Ta Village.
Really?
When is it?
I'm not sure yet,
but soon.
I'm sorry, I have to go now.
See you around.
Mint, wait.
I just wanted to say
I've asked my own heart.
I don't just care about you because
you look like the woman
I was searching for.
Tawan,
that was a long time ago.
But for the past three years,
I haven't been able
to stop thinking about you.
Why is it that whenever I did anything,
I had to imagine
how much better it would be
if you were there with me?
Why is it that
every time I looked through my lens,
I always saw your shadow
where ever I went?
And why is it that every time
I looked at Teacher Kamonwan's photos,
I didn't think about her at all?
I only thought about you.
The person who I know.
I fell in love with you.
The person standing right in front of me,
not Kamonwan.
What about you?
Do you feel the same way?
If something really happens to us,
what am I supposed to do?
Feel guilty for the rest of my life?
And during the time we were apart,
weren't you hurting too?
I understand.
Then I'll only ask you for one thing.
If the next life is real,
and we happen to meet again
Please
Give me another chance
To love you once more.
Do you think you're the only one
with feelings?
For the past three years,
I've never stopped
thinking about you either.
I missed your photographs.
I missed your jokes.
I kept wondering what it would be like
if you were with me.
But
What if there are no buts?
NO LYING ZONE
What if there are no buts,
no reasons needed?
Just let things happen.
Can you tell me how you really feel?
I love you.
You don't have to wait for the next life.
I already love you in this life.
I want you to be the first to see it.
Close your eyes.
No peeking.
I won't.
Okay, walk straight ahead.
Can I open my eyes now?
Stop.
Ready?
You are the only one
I want to look at through my lens
and in real life.
Smile for me, please.
Teacher, don't look so tense.
I'm already afraid of you.
