The Pool
No water. No ladder. No way out.
Directed by Phuping Pungsa-ard
Produced by TMOMENT, Dark Army Studio
A claustrophobic survival thriller that traps a lone protagonist in an inescapable pit with a predatory threat, building dread through isolation and helplessness.
Left alone to clean up a 6-meter-deep deserted pool, Day falls asleep on an inflatable raft. When he wakes, the water level has sunk so low that he can't climb out on his own. Stuck in the pool, Day screams for help, but the only thing that hears him is a creature from a nearby crocodile farm.
