Ratchapoom Boonbunchachoke, THA, F, SG, D, 2025, 130', DF
” With dust-dry humor, the debut film from Thailand tells the story of a love story between a man and a household appliance. Strange things are happening in March's family's factory. First, a work accident causes products manufactured there to be possessed by a ghost, then his deceased wife Nat reappears in the form of a vacuum cleaner. In order to convince the rest of the family that she exists, Nat tries to prove useful to everyone. But while the feelings of the two are undeterred by questions of life and death, the family's resistance grows. As weird as it is sensitive, the film tells of the everyday life of the ghosts around us and also about the political history of Thailand” (Filmfest Hamburg).
A Useful Ghost is crazy fun that you shouldn't miss out on, including a showdown between refrigerator and vacuum cleaner, accompanied by lively film music.
Admission and participation are free of charge. No registration required.
