Art Idol is a 2012 Thai comedy-drama film directed by Bhandit Rittakol. The film follows the story of a group of art students who decide to put on an exhibition to sell their works and raise money for their school. However, they soon realize that the art world is a much more complicated and cutthroat industry than they had anticipated. The film stars Pongtap Anurat as Ton, Kornkamol Chareoncha as Dew, and Pilasinee Pichaikulworasiri as Fai.

Ton, Dew, and Fai are art students who share a passion for creating beautiful works of art. They attend a school that is struggling financially, and they are constantly worried about the possibility of the school closing down. In an effort to save the school, they come up with the idea of putting on an art exhibition to showcase their work and raise money to support the school.

The three friends are excited about the exhibition, and they work tirelessly to create their best works of art. They are eventually joined by other students from the school, all of whom contribute their own unique pieces to the show. With the help of a teacher and some volunteers, they set up the exhibition and eagerly await the arrival of their first customers.

Things start off well for the group, and it seems as though they are on their way to a successful show. However, they soon realize that the art world is much more complicated and cutthroat than they had originally anticipated. They face competition from other artists who are more established, and they struggle to attract buyers to their exhibition.

As the days go by, the group becomes increasingly desperate to sell their artwork. They come up with a number of creative schemes to attract buyers, including staging fake sales and hiring a well-known artist to pretend to buy their art in order to attract other customers. However, their efforts only lead to more trouble and complications.

The film also explores the personal relationships between the characters. Ton is in love with Dew, but she is oblivious to his feelings and instead falls for a successful artist who shows interest in her work. Fai is struggling to cope with the pressure of creating art and dealing with her family issues, and she finds solace in a fellow student who helps her cope.

As the exhibition draws to a close, the group faces the harsh reality that they have not been able to sell enough art to save their school. However, they realize that their love for art and their friendship with each other is more important than any financial gain. They come together to celebrate their accomplishments and look forward to a future filled with creativity and passion.

Overall, Art Idol is a heartwarming and comedic exploration of the struggles that young artists face in the modern world. The film is filled with beautiful, thought-provoking artwork and memorable performances from its talented cast. It is a must-see for anyone who loves art or is interested in the creative process.
