According to the tradition in Thailand, when puppet masters create their puppets, they breathe a spell into them which will curse anyone daring to take them. Kru Tong, a humble street artist, defies the taboo when he finds a box with two puppets and decides to use them for his performance.

2nd segment of omnibus movie Three, the two others being Memories by Kim Ji-woon (South Korea) and Coming Home by Peter Ho Sun-Chan (Hong Kong).
