'3 Friends' is an experimental fiction/documentary film conceived and directed by 3 friends. This video documentary follows model Napakpapah Nakprasit and her friends Penporn Poonsaem and Jitraporn Panit (nicknamed Mamee, Yo and Belle, respectively) as they frolic on the gorgeous beaches of Thailand.
We see the real lives of three girlfriends: Belle flirts with a boatman, Yo searches for a cell phone signal so she can call her boyfriend in the city, while Mamee befriends a young Japanese ecologist. Beyond that there is little substance to this film. In fact, '3 Friends' resembles a vacation video. The girls lie in the sand, chat in bed and roam the lush, leafy countryside. Their conversations are trivial and their journeys from start to end are insignificant. Apparently, the genesis of this film lies in Thailand's "star films," which are easily available on cheaply produced video discs sold at convenience stores.
