Write a short summary of what happens in the film

A young man is having difficulty wrapping his head around reality, as his girlfriend goes through numerous ‘upgrades’, flipping through faces, ages, genders… Eventually, he comes to love the new version of his girlfriend just the same and realises that change can be awesome.

Cultural/Context information for the jury

It’s common for people to feel uncomfortable with changes. This is especially true with Thai people, who hate changes when it comes to things and apps that they’re already used to. Anytime anything they’re familiar with changes, they would react negatively and complain. There have been numerous cases of negative reaction from Thai people when a brand changes something. For example, when Instagram changed its icon, lots of Thais complained and some even started a petition online to get the old logo back. But Thais also love films, especially binging on online videos while stuck in traffic. So we entertained them with a film to make it easy to digest the drastic changes. Reminding them that change is awesome as long as what's most important remains.
