Directed by Paul Negoescu • Drama • With Andrei Mateiu, Ioana Anastasia Anton, Sinziana Nicola, Tudor Istodor • 2012 • 85 minutes
Perfectly capturing the feeling of post-holiday year end ennui, A Month In Thailand orbits around its sad-sack hero’s misadventures on New Year's Eve. A twilight odyssey through buffets with bad karaoke and clubs pumping out dance remixes of “The Power of Love”. Perpetually falling in and out of love. A bittersweet story of longing, regret, and indecisiveness.
