What it's about

When his twin Black is was viciously attacked and subsequently left hospitalised, White is was unable to endure the harm done to his brother in silence. Knowing from his brother's mouth that it was one of Black's closest friends who betrayed him, White will disguises himself as Black to root out the traitor. Was it Sean who's so calm, serious and hard to read? Cheerful and friendly Graham? Or might it have been hot-blooded Yok who likes to fight?

The take

After years of separation, White returns to Thailand and disguises himself as his twin brother Black to investigate who attacked Black and put him in a coma. As he infiltrates his brother's life, he discovers the violent activism Black was a part of, deciding to join the gang to find more information. Soon he gets caught up in this struggle to justify the violent means and how it affects the very people they are trying to protect. With strong social commentary on Thailand and its laws, it is a powerful look at the mistreatment of the working class and marginalized groups like the LGBTQ community.
