Synopsis:
"The documentary film by German photographer and filmmaker Wolfgang Bellwinkel, portrays three foreigners whose home has become Bangkok – either through circumstance or choice.
We meet ex-junkie Chris, an American walking the edge between survival and recovery; English teacher Alex who has transformed the exotic into the ordinary, and underground photographer Nick who is fascinated by Bangkok's nightworld of crime and passion.
The film probes the central question: "Is home a physical reality or simply a state of mind?"
