The Ghost of Mae Nek

For his directorial debut, British-born filmmaker and cinematographer Mark Duffield presents an accessible retelling of a popular Thai legend, which previously sparked a score of films and a stage musical. A young contemporary couple, Mak (Siwat Chotchaicharin) and Nak (Pataratida Pacharawirapong), purchase an old house in Bangkok. Alas, it comes with a tragic history and an angry black-toothed ghost named Mae Nak (Porntip Papanai). After an accident leaves Mak in a coma, Nak must discover the reason for Mae Nak's fury before it's too late.
