    THAILAND, CAMBODIA, FRANCE / 2013 / Thai, Khmer / Color / 96 min
    Director:
    Nontawat Numbenchapol

    -

    In 2010, filmmaker Nontawat met a 24-year-old workman from Sisaket, a Thai province bordering Cambodia. Inspired by the young man’s past experiences as a soldier serving in the southern area that includes Bangkok, this film uniquely sketches images of the domestic political conflicts between the pro-Thaksin “Red Shirts” group and the anti-Thaksin “Yellow Shirts” group, the on-going border conflict between Thailand and Cambodia, and people’s lives along the border.
