CONTENT WARNING:
Pie is a sweet girl who moves into a new college dorm room where she finds out that her new roommate Kim, is a tomboy who looks and dress like a boy. As their friendship develops, Pie and Kim begin to wonder if the feeling they feel for one another is just an ordinary friendship or true love.
This film is presented in Thai with English subtitles.
Joins us for a disarmingly sweet tale of two Thai students who must decide whether they are brave enough to live lesbian lives. The first feature film in Thailand to be promoted as a lesbian film, Yes or No? has been an impressive success. Five years in the making, this disarmingly sweet film has been shown in cinemas across Thailand, made a modest profit at the box office and gained a best director nomination at the Thai equivalent to the Oscars. The plot focuses on the forthright Pie and more gentle Kim who are thrown together at university halls of residence. As Pie begins to let go of the prejudices she has inherited from her mother and Kim comes to terms with her tom (butch) identity, the pair become close friends and have to consider whether they are brave enough to be more than that.

A beautifully told love story of what happens when one woman finally follows her heart. Mia and Frida meet for the first time at their respective parents’ engagement party. As their eyes meet over the champagne toast, both women recognise a deep attraction for each other. But standing in their way is Tim, Mia’s long term boyfriend and business partner, who has just asked Mia to marry him. Thrown together by circumstance, Mia finds it hard to resist acting on her desires for the beautiful and openly gay Frida. Although she insists it was just a one-time thing, she is drawn to the other woman as strongly as Frida is drawn to her. Realising the love and acceptance she experiences with Frida is what she truly wants in life, Mia’s actions have the potential to turn everyone’s lives upside down. How far will she go to keep the woman of her dreams? A beautiful and sensual film told elegantly by Keining with strong performances by all involved.
