This film contains scenes of blood and violence.
A young girl born with situs inversus grows up in quiet isolation, raised solely by her grandmother—who guards her like a fragile secret the world must never fully understand. On the outside, she appears ordinary. But within her, everything has always been reversed. One day, she begins to see a “childhood friend” no one else remembers. No records. No photographs. No proof that he ever existed—except in her memories. As fragments of the past slowly resurface, she is drawn deeper into the house she grew up in… and deeper into something far more unsettling. The line between memory and imagination begins to blur. When a sudden accident causes her heart to stop, time fractures. The world she thought she knew begins to distort. And the truth she has clung to may be nothing more than a reflection—reversed, incomplete, and painfully fragile. This is a story about loneliness, memory, and the delicate boundary between what is real… and what the heart creates to survive. | This film was created from a desire to explore psychological horror in a way that feels different from conventional ghost stories. Rather than portraying ghosts as literal supernatural entities seeking revenge or unfinished business, the film reimagines the “ghost” as a symbolic representation of traumatic memory. The central idea is that the human mind has the power to create its own realities in order to survive emotional pain. In this story, the ghost is not simply a spirit from the outside world, but a manifestation of unresolved memories and suppressed experiences from the protagonist’s past. By combining psychological themes with suspense and mystery, the film gradually reveals how loneliness, childhood trauma, and family dynamics can shape a person’s perception of reality. The supernatural elements are used not as the main spectacle, but as a metaphor for the hidden scars people carry within themselves. Through this approach, the film aims to blur the boundary between memory, imagination, and reality—inviting the audience to question whether what they see is truly supernatural, or simply the fragile way the human heart protects itself from unbearable truth. Ultimately, the film is about how memory can haunt us more deeply than any ghost. | This short film is a heartfelt creation, both written and directed by a 17-year-old emerging filmmaker driven by a deep passion for the art of cinema. Though it was submitted to the Bangkok Horror Film Festival and not selected, the work stands as a testament to youthful ambition, creative courage, and the relentless pursuit of storytelling.

A Little Bit About The Filmmaker
Do you like scary movies? And if so which ones?
Yes, I like scary movies because they make me feel excited and challenged. I mostly like to watched A24 movie such as , HEREDITARY, MIDSOMMAR,BRING HER BACK. Those three are my favorite.
Who or what is the biggest influence in your film making?
The biggest influence in my filmmaking is my desire to bring the imagination in my mind to life. I am also deeply interested in exploring social inequality, not just as a common issue, but as something that affects many aspects of human life. I am inspired by films that use memory and psychological elements instead of traditional horror, where “ghosts” can represent emotions, trauma, or the past. I prefer storytelling that communicates through symbolism and psychology rather than being direct, because it allows the audience to think and feel more deeply.
