A boy steals a motorbike, beginning a voyage across Thailand. Plagued by ghosts of the past and present, he faces conflicting visions of his nation. His joyride progresses from a series of misadventures into a quest for meaning amidst the chaotic, strife-ridden landscape of Thailand in the 2010s – the 2550s in the Buddhist era. This folklore-infused narrative blends the comical mundane and the uncanny in a unique dreamlike odyssey.
“The Twenty-Five Fifties is strange, mythic, and yet grounded in a deeply observed Thailand – a necessary expression of this land’s logic. The lyrical prose carries a story that is like a train journey; a quiet one with unexpected significance that keeps pushing through the unknown darkness. It lingers in the best way.”
Apichatpong Weerasethakul.
