There is a legend about a tree fairy ¡®Nariphon¡¯ in Thailand. Tien stole the fruit of Nariphon inside the forest. Tien¡¯s friend Gene convinced Tien to return the fruit, and the two walk in Nariphon¡¯s forest, which appeared in Gene¡¯s dream.
The mix of narrative elements – characters¡¯ conversations about death, wishes, divine creatures, ghosts, and the unclear past of their relationship – and the audiovisual elements – birds chirping, creeks, mysterious forest and trees, as well as the unique editing style – leaves a mystical and vivid impression.
