After fifteen years of marriage, Mathilda and Thomas had long dreamed of starting a family, but every attempt ended in heartbreak. Their hope finally arrived when they adopted four-year-old Mapring from Thailand—but tragedy struck when Mathilda was killed in an accident. Suddenly, Thomas was left alone with a child he never truly wanted. Overwhelmed by grief and unable to connect with the boy, he sets out to find Mapring’s biological relatives. With the help of Chaan, a local guide, Thomas embarks on a grueling journey across Thailand. Slowly, the bond between father and son begins to grow. But one haunting question remains: when Thomas finally locates Mapring’s birth family, what will he choose to do?

More About This Film
