From the Shutter director Banjong Pisanthanakun, The Medium follows a renowned Isan-based medium who channels a goddess for her community. When a family lineage confronts long-buried trauma, the possession spreads beyond one body into a haunting web of spirits. As rituals unfold, a terrifying truth about hereditary power and ritual abuse emerges, pushing the characters through a claustrophobic labyrinth of memory, deceit, and terrifying violence. The film blends documentary-style exorcism, long takes in fog-bound forests, and shocking physical transformations to deliver a chilling meditation on belief, lineage, and the cost of admitting what lurks within.
