Epic family saga about Chinese immigrants in Thailand, spanning several generations and most of the 20th century.
Everyone’s life, despite occasional happiness and joy, is in its core tragic, and the source of the tragedy are common human vices: jealousy, greed, unrealistic expectations, self-hatred, pride, self-righteousness and inability to regulate emotions, which cloud judgment and usually lead to a chain of one bad decision after another.
