In the wake of the 2020–2021 Thai Protests, the dictator government has deployed military information warfare, accusing the protest leaders of being communists, similar propaganda to what was used against the student activists in the 1960s and ’70s. The film meditates on the remnants of the Communist sites, the legacy of the Cold War and the ruined fortress that was once the Ministry of Treasury during WWII.
