THE POOL

Day, an art director, is involved in shooting a commercial. Things go from bad to worse on the set, and then he finds himself at the bottom of a deserted swimming pool. Unfortunately for him, matters quickly worsen even more when he discovers that a crocodile is lurking nearby and seems determined to make the pool its new home.

With The Pool, Thai cinema offers us a film based on a simple and minimalist but very ingenious and imaginative concept. Playing on our most basic fears, Ping Lumpraploeng’s daring and accomplished movie is likely to challenge the nerves of even the most courageous.
