Synopsis
The Kayan people of northern Thailand’s so-called “long-neck” villages would like the world to hear the truth behind the negative media headlines. Should we not let the Kayan people decide whether they want people to visit them or not? In an ethical boycott, nobody wins.

More from the Filmmaker
This film was really important to me and for the Kayan people themselves. It’s essential that the world sees the truth behind the media headlines which are damaging these fragile economies of the Kayan refugee communities.
