A documentary team follows Nim, a shaman from the northern area of Thailand's Isan region, and her niece Mink, who is exhibiting unusual symptoms that appear to be related to shamanism. The team decides to track Mink's progress in order to capture the passing down of the shamanic lineage to the next generation, but her peculiar behavior becomes increasingly extreme. This supernatural horror film was entered as the best feature film at the 25th Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival and as Thailand's entry for the Best International Feature Film at the 94th Academy Awards.
