Citizen Dog
Citizen Dog 2004 was directed by the Director of Tears Of The Black Tiger, Wisit Sanantieng.
This movie was his next project and is based on a screenplay written by his wife.
This film is a cult film, in the same sense as Tears of The Black Tiger became.
A naive village boy called "Pod" played by Mahasamut Boonyaruk moves away from his country province, to Bangkok.
He gets work in a sardine factory, but cuts off his finger. He re-attaches the finger of a colleague.
A change of jobs has him as an office security guard. He meets a girl called "Jin", played by Saengthong Gate-Uthong, and it is love at first sight.
Change of jobs again, Pod becomes a taxi driver, so he can drive Jin everywhere she wants to go.
But Jin suddenly decides to become an environmental protectionist.
The movie is surreal, and even absurd, but is makes great entertainment.
