Escaping from the rural poverty of northern Thailand, Chai has come to Bangkok looking for love and the chance of a better life. Refusing to join the legion of "boys" working in the bars he finds work as a private cook for the louche but charming expat Ben, himself in the throes of a mid-life crisis. Like moths to a flame, the two are drawn together in a doomed love affair which changes both their lives forever. But not just their lives - and not in the way either expected.

Bangkok Butterfly is currently in development with
Poisson Rouge Pictures in London.
