Unusual story line about several unconnected Swedish people who go to Thailand for different reasons. Gradually their lives change and we become absorbed in their individual dramas. The scenery is glorious and the people charming so, even though the poverty and sordid side is there the Thai positive spirit shines through so the series is also a good advertisement for trips to Thailand.
3 different story lines of Swedish people who travel to Thailand for a new life: a lonely man looking for a wife; a career-driven mother of two who has neglected her family; and a meek older woman looking for escape from her emotionally abusive marriage. Brilliantly filmed. Engaging, thought provoking, always a new twist, turn to keep you wondering.
