After his grandmother Amah (Usha Seamkhum) is diagnosed with terminal cancer, the lackadaisical M (Putthipong Assaratanakul) moves in to care for her. How noble – but his newfound devotion isn’t altruistic; really, he hopes to secure her multi-million-dollar fortune. Unfortunately, it turns out it’s harder to win his shrewd grandmother’s favour than he thought… Plus, he’s only one in a number of interested parties.

What sounds like a sentimental premise is given a dose of realism and grit by its excellent lead performances and a story that offers matter-of-fact touches on the physical and emotional realities of end-of-life care and how it can deepen relationships, imbuing them with greater honesty and trust. Drawing us into a family with universally recognisable dynamics, this is a journey to redemption story with wit and heart.

A box office sensation in Thailand, Pat Boonnitipat’s irresistible feature debut is a proven tearjerker (it went viral after users of social media began a trend of videoing themselves crying after watching the film) has made the Oscar shortlist and scooped a Golden globe.
