Write a short summary of what happens in the film.

6 time distillation is better. For vodka. And for posting something on social media. Because in the heat of the moment, undistllled posts can cause unnecessary drama. As a girl finds out in this short entertaining film how 6 times distillation can resolve conflict, keeping her precious friendship intact with harmony and understanding. p.s. To go along with the 6 times distillation message, the film is 6 minutes long. Enjoy.

Cultural / Context information for the jury

In Thailand, a heavily Buddhist country, all alcohol advertising is highly regulated with very strict guidelines. Brands cannot communicate overtly the superiority of the product or come off as 'promoting drinking'. Kulov Vodka is smooth and superior for its 6 times distillation process. To say this, the strategy is to tie the message in with a problem that everyone can easily relate to: undistllled emotional posts on social media. Because we've all experienced impulsive posts (initiated by ourselves or others) that can cause unnecessary drama. Before you post something emotional, distilling your thoughts (6 times) will make sure conflicts can be easily avoided. The film ingeniously blends together the superiority of the product and a positive social message.

Provide the full film script in English.

Lomo band comes on. The singer starts shouting out to the crowd) Lomo lead singer: Those who are angry, give me some noise! Those who care about our feelings, let’s hear it! If you don’t like me, say it to my face. Don’t keep it to yourself. Time to… … wake up! (Lomo band starts singing) (Singing lyrics): The day I’m awaken The day I’m risen No more losing No more giving away my heart… (Girl sitting on floor is on left side of screen. Girl is called Potaya.

(Potaya on left looks upset, as the image on right screen cut to her phone, she starts typing.) Potaya (typing and thinking to herself): [Benz, you’re such a bully. Pretending you’re innocent.

We’ve been friends forever… (On the right screen there’s a photo of Potaya and the girl in glasses – called Benz. Both of them looking happy and holding up the V sign.) (Girl in glasses, Benz - Potaya’s friend, appear on right screen holding a swim buoy ring) Benz: In 4th grade I saved you from drowning, remember?
