Our Lyrics

Woon is in mourning. The departed is White. White is a phone. His beloved phone, now lying somewhere underwater, while a friend offers to buy him a submarine so the search goes faster. That is how Our Lyrics (บทเพลงของความไม่จริงใจ) opens, and it is a wonderfully silly door into a story that gets tender fast.

On a night when he only wants to be alone, Bun, a third year Fine Arts student, gets found by Woon. Woon is a third year too, so he decides the two of them can skip the formalities. Bun repeats that he wants to be alone. Woon offers his table, some music and finally his place. Bun repeats it louder. It becomes the best running gag of the trailer.

Money pulls them together. A group called INDIE CONNECT is hiring for a paid gig tied to the old Thai custom of planting lemongrass to keep the rain away. Woon does not believe in it for a second. He only wants the cash for a new phone. Naturally, he gets paired with Bun, and the boy who wanted to be alone now has a partner on a motorbike.

From there the friendship gets blurry. A weather app sets up a bet: if it rains, Bun owes Woon his LINE ID. Later, Bun asks whether friends can cuddle all night like pillows, and whether friends can kiss. The trailer captions call it a move from friends to special friends. A song then pulls a memory from two years earlier, and two wishes get said out loud: to be honest about feelings, and to meet someone sincere. In a story about lyrics and half truths, sincerity is the whole fight.
