Local villagers from Pattani, a border province between Thailand and Malaysia, long stigmatised as a terrorist stronghold due to repeated bomb attacks, have been subjected to harsh military suppression under martial law for more than two decades. The Muslim community, while struggling for liberation from Thai state oppression amid a global wave of Islamophobia, have sought to assert their identity through an austere religious morality as a display of unity. Being gay is condemned as the sin of monsters destined for Hell. Against this backdrop, the film turns to one unconventional family.
