A Useful Ghost
Festival Note
March (Witsarut Himmarat) is mourning the death of his wife Nat (Davika Hoorne) by dust poisoning. But their love proves to be stronger than death when Nat returns in the form of a vacuum cleaner. March’s mother, who never approved of their marriage in the first place, fears that her son’s relationship with a house appliance might cause scandal, but Nat proves to be useful in other ways. A Useful Ghost wields absurdity as a weapon to rail against the broken structures of Thai society that keep the working class down.
