Hunger is a film directed by Sitisiri Mongkolsiri and starring Chutimon Chuengcharoensukying and Nopachai Chaiyanam.
Hunger is an apparently low-key Thai film which lands this Saturday on Netflix, with a very interesting aesthetic and a story to tell.
Plot
A famous chef notices a “street” cook. The girl has talent, and he decides to hire her as part of his select group of assistants to serve the upper class of the country.
But the food holds a secret.
Hunger (2023) About the Movie
Interesting, to say the least. A movie about cooking served in the form of a thriller with strain spikes and, above all, a good high-contrast photography.
A film that has a clear axis around which the other stories revolve: social differences and injustice. Whether or not to go into social matters, the film raises this issue well, and knows how to distinguish both environments in rhythm as well as in the aesthetic tone.

"Do it until it's right!" Netflix has launched the official trailer for an intense thriller film called Hunger, made in Thailand about the food industry in Thailand. At first glance this reminds me of The Menu, but it also seems a bit more like FX's "The Bear" meets Eyes Wide Shut (yeah check it out). With a few sprinkles of The Platform thrown in. "Experience the kind of hunger you have never seen before... in Hunger." A woman running her family's noodle restaurant receives an invite to join the fine-dining industry under the tutelage of an infamous chef. Model Chutimon Chuengcharoensukying stars as Amy, a young woman who gets taken into a high society cooking company called "Hunger" and learns how insane people are up there. The film also stars Nopachai Jayanama and Gunn Svasti Na Ayudhya . This will be streaming on Netflix in April worldwide - I definitely need to watch this.

Netflix is broadening its original content output from Thailand, a country with a history of punching above its weight with original genre filmmaking, TV production and creative advertising.
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. The slate includes four films and two series.
“From broad comedy to twisty thrillers, this is our most diverse lineup of titles to date in Thailand,” said Netflix’s director of content for Thailand, Yongyoot Thongkongtoon.
“While we explore class disparity in culinary film Hunger, pay homage to itinerant mobile film troupes in Mon Rak Nak Pak and follow the emotional journey of strangers pretending to be a family in Analog Squad,...
