Netflix has revealed its debut slate of original Thai productions, including four feature films and two TV series.
The four films will be produced in partnership with local production partners Gmm Studios International, Song Sound Production, Transformation Films, and 18 Tanwa.
The slate includes Director Sitisiri Mongkolsiri’s latest Hunger, which is billed as a restaurant drama that follows Aoy, a woman in her twenties, who runs her family’s local stir-fried noodles restaurant in the old quarter of Bangkok.

Writer-director Prueksa Amaruji will bring The Lost Lotteries, produced by Ekachai Uekrongtham, to the streamer. The film is billed as a heist-comedy film about 5 losers united by a crazy mission to retrieve their 30-million-baht winning lottery...

Netflix has produced and released a smattering of individual originals from Thailand over the past few years — including reality series The Stranded and crime thriller Bangkok Breaking — but the lineup unveiled by the streamer at a glitzy event in Bangkok Tuesday evening represents its first full Thai slate.
