citizen dog

from the moment Pod walks out of his house with the gorgeous mural, to him losing his finger in a canned sardine, to him finding his lost finger, to the enigma that is Jin (who buries her face in a book she cannot understand), to the streets filled with maid-uniforms, to the smoking teddy bear and the little grownup girl, to the licking-man, and the bus-squeezing couple, to the mountain of plastic bottles, to the reincarnated grandma, to the zombie motorcycle-taxi-rider, CITIZEN DOG had me thoroughly enthralled from opening singing sequence to the last.

SYNOPSIS [via wiki]:
Mah Nakorn (English title: Citizen Dog) is a 2004 Thai romance film, directed by Wisit Sasanatieng and based on a story by Wisit's wife, Koynuch (Siriphan Techajindawong), which was illustrated by him. The second film by the director of Tears of the Black Tiger, it is a colorfully surrealistic story set in contemporary Bangkok, where a boy (Pod) without a goal in life falls in love with a girl (Jin) who lives for her dreams. The movie is frequently compared with the French movie Amélie. One of the main themes of the movie is that people will only find something from the moment when they stopped looking for it.
