Citizen Dog

A migrant worker falls in love with a maid and becomes a celebrity as the only man in Bangkok without a tail. Pod, a shy country bumpkin, is warned by his grandma that he will grow a tail if he lands a job in Bangkok. Instead, Pod loses a finger in a sardine tin assembly line in a manically staged nod to Charlie Chaplin’s Modern Times. He opts for a safer occupation as a security guard and meets Jin, an obsessivecompulsive maid. He is smitten, but Jin is equally taken with the plight of the hero of a pulp romance magazine. In his efforts to get closer to the object of his affection, Pod makes his way through Bangkok’s brightly coloured jungle, where even the most mundane event can be one of enchantment and excitement.
