SYNOPSIS

Dawan, a young,14 years old village girl who lives in Thailand, wins a scholarship to study in a city school. Her brother, Kwai who is 13, places second and is initially jealous, causing a conflict between the two previously-close siblings. This aggression is further worsened by Dawan's father, who feels that the city is no place for a female. Dawan faces obstacles at every turn, and eventually overcomes these obstacles and proves to herself and to others that she is fully capable of handling the scholarship and the responsibility it entails.
