separate short stories with sci fi elements
Episode 1Overall: although I enjoyed the premise, it could have used a few changes in its execution. Watched on Imagine Thailand's YouTube channel https://youtu.be/EJR6eFGFOpc?si=Kavwt6G82dBMeO7_ They also made Romantic Station which I enjoyed.
Content Warnings: punches played as comedy/it's complicated
What I Liked
- premise
- production value for an indie production
Room For Improvement
- the comedy sound effects
- camera cut away right at the end
Episode 2 Swop
I liked the sci-fi element, wish they had taken out the non con kisses and replaced it with actually spending time together instead of doing a flashback montage. Glad a character thought about the ethics of it, not sure that I'm totally sold on the ending. Content Warnings: past death, non con kisses, non con touching

Be polite or.....
I am trying hard to figure out whether this is a short film or the first episode of a series. The producers are asking for support in order to make new episodes in the multiverse!The story is simple: when Te wakes up after a nap at the lakeside, he finds out his shoes are gone so he goes looking for the thief. The first person he meets is wearing shoes very much like his own so he gets so angry that that person hits him and he finds himself back in time, rebooted to the beginning of the conversation. The reboot happens a few times until he is politely asking about the missing shoes. Eventually, it turns out that the reboots were just a bad dream!
Parallel universes are an intriguing concept: here the different outcomes of the same situation were shown as if they were a dream. Be nice or you risk to miss out on important things: like a new and solid relationship!
The actors are super cute and they work well together even though they are obviously rather inexperienced which shows. In the end, even though a dream theory is delivered, a doubt remains. The drama is filmed and written well: there is a cute scene when Te trips and falls on the other guy also called Te, we see a heart shaped cloud in the sky! Tropes done well are priceless!
All in all, this is a cute short watch!
