A Karen village in Thailand’s highest mountain (Doi Inthanon), home to both wildlife and indigenous peoples, has traditionally coexisted with its natural landscape through rice cultivation. However, for Asak’s young family, a recent interest in domestic tourism on the mountain has created new avenues of metamorphosis for village life.
タイの最高峰ドーイインタノンは、多くの野生生物や民族を懐深く育んできた。その山中に美しい棚田を拓いたカレンの村で、アサックと家族の暮らしは大きな変化を経験していた。時とともに変わりゆくもの、そして変わらないものとは―。
