The movie centres around M a struggling game streamer and college dropout from a Thai family. M’s life lies stagnant, until his grandma gets diagnosed with cancer. Inspired by how a cousin of his inherited her grandfather’s house after caring for him throughout a long illness, M decides to cosy up to Amah (played by the wonderful Usha Seamkhum) in an attempt to inherit her assets after she dies.
With a strong set of characters, How to Make Millions’ proceeds to craft numerous tear-jerking moments whose emotional punch comes from their degree of cultural relevance; many of the movie’s audiences in Southeast Asia could probably see such incidents playing out in their own families.
The central relationship of the film — between the grandson and the grandmother — was something that was almost universal. The memory of grandmother tends to develop early on, when you’re still pretty small, and I think maybe people will resonate with that pure warmth. – Pat Boonitipat, Director
The well-crafted dynamics between How to Make Millions’ characters gives the movie a strong foundation. Each family member plays a distinct yet complementary role that highlights the range of personalities that Asian families often embody. – Cinema Escapist

With over 2000 members the Noosa Film Society is the largest such society in Australia.
The Noosa Film Society is a registered not-for-profit organisation and was established in 1979 to encourage interest in film as an art form. At first, movies were screened at the golf club to a small group of film enthusiasts once a month. Several years later, screenings were moved to the Noosa Arts Theatre where they continued to play until the cinema in Noosa Junction was built.
