This one-shot is an extract from the 'La Bwatte' fantasy series about an old, flamboyant seaman, living his best life in Patpong, Bangkok. I 'made' the set in a random garage. The casting, decoration, props, lightning, art-direction, etc.; all done by myself. 'La Bwatte' is about life. Not everything is as it seems, but it's still the real world. It's not about sex, it's about everlasting friendship and respect. So, if you learn to be open-minded, you can be open-minded to learn. If more people were open-minded for longer than a nanosecond, they would have a little bit of perspective.
