Once in Memory: Love at First Sight

In the bustling halls of a Thai high school, Kong (Rossi Nonthakorn Chatchue) is the effortlessly popular heartthrob of M.4/8—until a single glance across the cafeteria changes everything. His eyes lock onto Film (Non Ratchanon Kanpiang), a cool, unreadable student from another class, and suddenly Kong’s world narrows to just one goal: win him over. What follows is a refreshingly straightforward love story, free of coming-out angst or dramatic obstacles. Kong pursues Film with charming confidence, using clever banter, stolen glances, and a cheeky ball-snatching incident to bridge the gap between them. Told through Kong’s playful inner monologue and occasional fourth-wall breaks, this 17-minute short film captures the electric thrill of teenage infatuation without any filler. The chemistry between the leads is magnetic, and the dialogue crackles with wit and youthful vulnerability. It’s a pure, uncomplicated romance that proves love at first sight doesn’t need a grand plot—just two people and the courage to say "I like you."
