Mary is Happy, Mary is Happy(HKAFF2025)

An ordinary girl encounters the unexplainable in this bold narrative experiment from Nawapol. Mary is a high school senior due to graduate soon, and she’s already busy dealing with love, friendship and general life problems. But now strange and seemingly random events are happening to her, and she must make sense of her increasingly uncontrollable life before it completely derails. Nawapol sought a new means of storytelling, and took 410 consecutive Tweets from an anonymous girl’s Twitter stream as his inspiration. Keeping the order and content of the Tweets intact, he adapted them into a fictional film, resulting in an original and imaginative commentary on the unpredictable nature of contemporary life.
