Summary:
Ted is a 46-year-old single Welsh man who feels lonely and invisible in a society where only young people seem to count. When he goes to Bangkok on a business trip, he meets a young Thai woman, and he falls in love. Tip comes from a penniless rural Thai family, and she works in a bar to support them. After marrying Ted, the two start a pig farm together. Before long, however, both the marriage and their financial situation are in ruins. This documentary tells the story from both perspectives. Ted decides to return to Tip's village and face the painful confrontation with his former lover.
