ナント三大陸映画祭
The story of a tragic romance between two peasants in rural Thailand, "Plae Kao" was the biggest box-office hit up until that time in Thailand. It shared the Golden Montgolfiere at the Nantes Three Continents Festival with "They Don't Wear Black-tie" by Brazilian director Leon Hirszman. It was also voted as one of the world's 360 classic movies by the Museum of the Moving Image in London, "Sight &amp; Sound" magazine and film directors and critics worldwide in 1998. "The Scar" was remade in 2002 as "Kwan-Riam".
