After a friends' party, Jane (Natthaweeranuch Thongmee) and her photographer boyfriend Tun (Ananda Everingham) get into a car accident, with Jane accidentally running over a woman. Tun prevents her from getting out of the car; they drive away, leaving the girl on the road. Tun begins to discover mysterious white shadows and faces in his photographs. Jane thinks these images may be the ghost of the girl they hit. Tun, who has been experiencing severe neck pains since the accident, visits a specialist and is dismayed to find that his weight is double his regular weight. He dismisses the idea of being haunted, though his friends are also being disturbed by this entity. Jane discovers that the girl was Natre, a shy young woman who had attended the same college as Tun. Tun admits that he and Natre were in a relationship, which Tun had kept secret from his friends. Natre loved Tun and threatened to commit suicide when he broke off the relationship. Tun witnesses his friend, Tonn, committing suicide, and discovers that his two other close friends from college have also committed suicide. Believing that they have been coerced into doing so by Natre's ghost, Tun becomes convinced he will be next. Tun and Jane visit Natre's mother and discover Natre's decaying body in the bedroom. Natre had committed suicide, but her mother could not bear to have her cremated. They convince her mother to have a proper funeral for her, after which Jane hopes that everything will return to normal. They spend the night at a hotel, where Tun is confronted by Natre's ghost. While trying to get away, he falls off a fire escape and is injured. On returning to Bangkok, Jane collects some photographs. She looks through one of the films, and discovers a series of images of Natre crawling towards the bookcase in Tun's apartment. Jane looks and finds a set of negatives hidden behind the bookcase. She develops them to find photographs that show Tun's friends-the ones who committed suicide-are sexually assaulting Natre. Disgusted by her findings and now convinced that Natre tried to warn her, a teary Jane confronts Tun. Tun reveals that when his friends were alone with Natre at school, they ambushed and sexually assaulted her. Tun also admits that he witnessed the rape but did nothing to stop his friends, and was told to take those photos by them as they continued to attack her. He says he did it out of peer pressure and has never forgiven himself but Jane leaves him. Grief stricken by their apparent break up, Tun begins to burn the photos of him and Jane. But knowing that he is still haunted by Natre, Tun begins taking pictures of every room in the house, but does not see her. Frustrated, he throws the camera onto the floor, only for it to go off and take a photograph of Tun, after picking it up he realizes why so many strange things have been happening to him. The photo in question shows Natre sitting on his shoulders and revealing the true cause for his neck pain and double body weight as she had been with the entire time. Natre covers his eyes, making him lose balance that causes him to move around crashing into his furniture before he ends up crashing and falling out of the window. The final scene shows Jane talking to a doctor before seeing Tun bandaged and slumped over in a private room, sitting on a hospital bed. She is shown heartbroken as her lover is a shell of his former self. Jane enters his room and as the door swings closed, the glass reflection shows Natre still sitting on his shoulders and the screen fades to black. (Courtesy of Wikipedia)
