Meen and June, two Thai 18-year old girls play badminton together after-school. Meen challenges June to defeat her.
The moment you feel awkward with a close friend and realize that, without you noticing, the friend hasn¡¯t treated you as just a friend–the film captures the tension of that moment in a romantic and lovely way. Sunshine, wind and swaying skirts, and the hair of running girls. All of this synesthetic imagery is vivid. [HWANG Miyojo]
